The deposits consist of Cs-Rb-Li-Ta-Nb-rich pegmatite veins, embedded in proterozoic crystalline schist and garnet-sillimanite-biotite gneiss (Bariand & Poullen 1978). Individual veins are hundreds of meters long and up to 50 m thick. The Kurghal pegmatite, for which the field is named, was mined for some time around 1995. Among other species, it produced green tourmaline (Orris & Bliss, 2002). |

Pegmatite |
Hindukush Himalayan Region |
Be-Ta-Li-Sn-Nb-Cs-Rb-rich pegmatite dykes, hosted in Early Cretaceous diorite and gabbro.Diorite, gabbro and granite intrusions with related pegmatites are intruded between gneiss, schist, quartzite, marble and amphibolite of Proterozoic protolits.The country rocks are penetrated by lots of steeply dipping dikes of granite and pegmatite. The granites grade into pegmatites, which contain biotite, muscovite, black tourmaline and rare beryl. As the veins enter the diorite their form, thickness and orientation becomes very regular. Horizontal or dipping at low angles the veins may be traced over kilometers. The thicknesses lie between dm and 40 m, but commonly between 1 and 20 m. Usually a characteristic feature of the pegmatites is a sporadic occurrence of beryl; but in the area NW of Nilaw spodumene and 'Lepidolite' occur with beryl lacking. (Gerhard Fuchs et al.) |

Mount Madison (80°26′S 160°10′E) is a prominent, largely ice-covered mountain in Antarctica, rising to 1,385 metres (4,540 ft) 7 nautical miles (13 km) west of Cape Selborne, on the south side of Byrd Glacier. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) for Lieutenant Commander Douglas W. Madison, aide to the Commander, U.S. Naval Support Force Antarctica, 1961–62, and Public Information Officer, 1963–64.Madison Terrace (80°32′S 160°18′E) is a rectangular terrace, 6 nautical miles (11 km) long and 3 nautical miles (6 km) wide, abutting the south part of Mount Madison on Shackleton Coast. Ice draining from Mount Madison covers the terrace, which terminates in a line of icefalls within Couzens Bay. Named by US-ACAN in association with Mount Madison. [Wikipedia] |

The Ancasti Pegmatite District (APD) is located in the Ancasti range where barren and rare-element class granitic pegmatites. The district comprises several groups that, from north to south, are named La Pampa-Unquillo, Vilismán, El Taco, and Santa Bárbara. The La Pampa-Unquillo Group comprises predominantly rare-element pegmatites of beryl type, intruding gneisses and migmatites of the Sierra Brava Complex. More than 90 pegmatites were exposed to artisanal mining for beryl and muscovite, and there are no records of Li-bearing mineralization.[1] |

Pegmatites of this region are related to ancient Granites, hosted in crystalline schists belonging to the system of Sierras Pampeanas. Pegmatite mine "Angel" (province of Córdoba) is rich in Quartz, (Microcline) and pinched with poor plagioclase feldspar, and encloses Uraninite, Garnet, Triplite and rarely Gahnite and Zircon. The Uraninite occurs in cubic crystals isolated or associated in twinned, or girls bodies, within Muscovite or also in Garnet and up in Triplite. The oxidized components of uranium include Gummite and Uranophane, Autunite and Renardite(Dewindtite), the latter impregnating masses of Mica, Feldspar and Quartz, up to 20 and more tons of volume, being also carrier as well as Columbite in pockets of some hundreds of kilograms. The Boltwoodite appears in these pegmatites as a result of the weathering of Uraninite; in radial aggregates, and solid. Pale yellow; White streak; glassy shine to Pearl. Cleavage {010}, perfect; {001}, imperfect. D = 3, 5-4. PE = 3, 60. Presents weak fluorescent green under ultraviolet light. Radioactive. Chemical Analysis. SiO2. 14.00%. UO3. 66,64%. K2O. 10.97%.

Griphite, an uncommon phosphate, has been found at the Difunta Correa granitic pegmatite (30º 20´ 45´´ S ? 66º 32´ 2.3´´ W), in La Rioja Province, NW Argentina. This pegmatite, a tabular body that reaches 2 m thick, is hosted in diorite but bears no genetic link with it. In addition to quartz, microcline, plagioclase and muscovite, it also hosts zwieselite-triplite [with Fe/(Fe+Mn) = 0.35-0.53] with minor amounts of wyllieite, alluaudite, wolfeite, lazulite and fluorapatite, as elongated (due to deformation) nodules in the intermediate zone. Griphite occurs as blackish-brown veinlets, up to 4 mm thick, crosscutting potassic feldspar, with intense greasy luster and conchoidal fracture. It is not associated with other phosphates. |

This pegmatite main minerals are quartz, plagioclase, microcline, to which is added Spodumene, Muscovite, Biotite, Beryl, 'Lepidolite', Tourmaline, Sphalerite, Molybdenite, Uraninite, Niobite, Tantalite, Native Bismuth, Bismuthinite, Ferrotapiolite, Manganotantalite, Microlite, Uranomicrolite, Bismuthmicrolite, Hafniferous Zircon, Triplite, Montebrasite and other phosphates and uranium oxide minerals.Minerals of the columbite group have varying compositions. from Ferrocolumbite to Manganocolumbite and the less evolved pegmatites and Shales to Manganotantalite in "El Peñon". In this case, Microlite, Uranomicrolite, and occasionally Bismuth-Microlite often accompany the most advanced members. Ferrocolumbite was determined by chemistry and x-ray diffraction.The crystals are centimetric to millimetric, tabular, sub to euhedrales, with development of forms {010}, {100}, {110}, {130}, {011}, {111} in different combinations. Found in the intermediate areas, including in plagioclase, microcline or primary phosphates. Alluvial crystals are prismatic or tabular thicknesses and often have vertical striations. They are black, fragile and have metallic sheen to submetallic. Brazilianite. found in the intermediate zone of the "El Peñon" pegmatite crystals no larger than 2 mm implanted on a prismatic face of an individual of Quartz. A pegmatite deposit. |

Pegmatite |
Pampean Pegmatite Province |
A mine in a granitic pegmatite, 4,040 m. above sea level.Consists of 3 small pegmatite dikes.These pegmatites main minerals are quartz, plagioclase, microcline, to which is added spodumene, muscovite, biotite, beryl, 'Lepidolite', tourmaline, sphalerite, molybdenite, uraninite, niobite, tantalite, native bismuth, bismuthinite, ferrotapiolite, manganotantalite, microlite, uranomicrolite, bismuthmicrolite, hafniferous zircon, triplite, montebrasite and other phosphates and uranium oxide minerals.Minerals of the columbite group have varying compositions. In these cases, microlite, uranomicrolite, and occasionally bismuth-microlite often accompany the most advanced members. Ferrocolumbite was determined by chemistry and x-ray diffraction. The crystals are centimetric to millimetric, tabular, subhedral to euhedral, with development of forms {010}, {100}, {110}, {130}, {011}, {111} in different combinations. Found in the intermediate areas, including in plagioclase, microcline or primary phosphates. Alluvial crystals are prismatic or tabular thicknesses and often have vertical striations. They are black, fragile and have a metallic to submetallic sheen. A pegmatite deposit. |

Pegmatite worked for muscovite during the 1960s and 1970s.Pegmatitic Body. Between the veins of the pegmatitic region stands located on the right bank of the Pichao River in its upper 500 metres water down the Milagro mine. It is discordant with the schistosity of the metamorphic rock and presents a course North 15 degrees East, which is in general of all the pegmatites of the area. It's a body of irregular 4 meters of power in its part wider, with a visible a couple of meters extension, losing in the metamorphic rock. The rock box is a shale injected with a high content of Biotite, not presenting alteration strong in contact, which is on the other hand sharp. It's a zoned pegmatite with more or less coarse texture whose exterior area is dominated by the feldspar, in addition to abundant black tourmaline(Var. Schorl) levels of fracturing of the feldspar are stuffed with pinched in the form of fine aggregate. Towards the interior of the body decreases the plagioclase, appearing an aggregate consisting of quartz with packages of Muscovite constituting veins of filling of the feldspars. Below middle of grain more bulk than the previous, still pink feldspar microcline its main component. There were veins of quartz of the kernel replace the feldspar of very frequently. The presence of minerals like Beryl, tourmaline and uranium, as well as mica which constituted the commercially exploitable area of this body, were sporadically observed in this area contact with the kernel. The Uraninite is presented in the form of dark nodules and vacuoles within the feldspar, accompanied by Uranophane and Kasolite. The Kaolinite only appears as the vacuoles of feldspar Microcline alteration in the vicinity of the Uraninite. The Chalcosite is presented as veins of few centimetres included in feldspar(Albite-Anorthite Series), altered to Malachite in some sectors. The Spodumene found in small quantities, partially altered, and bearer of microcrystals of Red Garnet and Emerald variety Beryl, dendrites of manganese in part of its surface. |

Location.This granite stock of the Papachacra formation, a geological structure in which there are deposits and mines, is located 75 kilometers in a straight line to the North of the town of Belén in the province of Catamarca, Argentina. It is accessible from Belén by national route No. 40 until the town of El Eje (47 km). Continue from there by national route 53 until Puerta de Corral Quemado (19 km) and then by the provincial route No. 36, 17 km to Corral Quemado. Throughout this journey, the road is made of gravel and well preserved. The 20 remaining kilometres to the village of Papachacra, to the North, are irregular and should be done in 4 x 4 vehicles.Geological features.Granite stock of the Papachacra formation, on its western slope ("Cerro León Muerto"), has a slightly oval shape, and its approximate boundaries are. the river "La Cuesta" to the North, the "Quebrada del río Blanco"(El Cajon) to the South, the town of "Papachacra" to the East and the "Pampa del Arrimo" to the West. Located within the system of "Sierras Pampeanas", it has an approximate altitude of 3,100 m. asl. It is embedded within the orthogneiss of the "Chango Real Formation" and it is a whitish-pink granodiorite of granular texture in pseudoporphyric and aplitic sectors. It is composed of quartz, plagioclase, orthoclase, biotite, muscovite, tourmaline, topaz, fluorite and opaque. This stock was subjected to a process of deuteric alteration because of streams rich in volatiles, causing the formation of miarolitic cavities filled with idiomorphic crystals of potassium feldspar (microcline), smoky quartz, muscovite, topaz, florencite-(Ce), tourmaline, etc. These processes of alteration are also evident in the aftermath of albitization and silicification, which are joined by a marked kaolinization of minerals of the first generation and cataclastic phenomena. According to its modal composition, one can classify this rock as a monzogranite on the border between sub-alkaline and alkaline granites. Conducted isotopic K/Ar dating show an age of 117 million years (± 20 million years), corresponding to the Lower Cretaceous.Intruding the "El Portezuelo" granite (granite Papachacra) is a suite of alkaline rocks. The late intrusive in this group are rhyolites peralkaline (comendites) with an extremely high content of some HFSE (Zr, Nb, Y, etc.). They are classified as granitoid of type A and belong to the Group A1. This suggests an extensional rift or environment of hot point towards the upper Carboniferous, considering that the shutdown Rb–Sr trend alkaline rocks occurred around 300 Ma. The relationships of trace elements are allied with differentiated mantle melt contaminated in a variable degree with cortical material. Rb–Sr isotopic data also point to a volcanic or lower crust source.Mining.Genetic phenomena and subsequent hydrothermal alterations, which resulted in crystallization and recrystallization, gave rise to a formation of exceptional richness, not only in mineralogical variety but also in the form developed by the crystals, which adds the valuable jewellery quality of some species. The topaz of this region offers a degree of transparency and purity, that coupled with the variety of colours (yellow, orange, brown, blue, colourless) make possible the carved stones of great value. The same is true for the varieties of quartz (smoky, citrine, and amethyst, in decreasing order of importance). Fluorite, another species of gemological interest, comes in purple, green and pink colours with full transparency. The rest of the minerals, which are not of gemological interest, present perfect crystalline forms and exceptional sizes, to which are added combining them in one piece, which gives you an invaluable for collections and museums, as well as ornamental. The most common smoky quartz associate is idiomorphic crystals of clear microcline in shades of pink to brown, Albite (var. Cleavelandite), muscovite, black tourmaline (var. Schorl), and hyaline Quartz. In the granite of Papachacra, this association amounts to rare and less abundant minerals making for interesting crystalline aggregates for museums and collections. |

Pampean Pegmatite Province |
Beryl type, beryl-columbite-phosphate subtype of rare-element pegmatite. The pegmatite is exposed over ~1250 m2, and at the surface it has an elliptical outline with a length of 62 m and a width of 32 m. The pegmatite was mined mainly for beryl in the 1950s, later for K-feldspar, and nowadays some muscovite scrap is sporadically recovered from the dumps. Two old quarries opened mainly in the intermediate zones show the internal structure formed by border, wall, outer and inner intermediate, and core zones. |

This pegmatite main minerals are quartz, plagioclase, microcline, to which is added Spodumene, Muscovite, Biotite, Beryl, 'Lepidolite', Tourmaline, Sphalerite, Molybdenite, Uraninite, Niobite, Tantalite, Native Bismuth, Bismuthinite, Ferrotapiolite, Manganotantalite, Microlite, Uranomicrolite, Bismuthmicrolite, Hafniferous Zircon, Triplite, Montebrasite and other phosphates and uranium oxide minerals. Minerals of the columbite group have varying compositions. from Ferrocolumbite to Manganocolumbite and the less evolved pegmatites and Shales to Manganotantalite in "Santa Elena". In this case, Microlite, Uranomicrolite, and occasionally Bismuth-Microlite often accompany the most advanced members. Ferrocolumbite was determined by chemistry and x-ray diffraction. The crystals are centimetric to millimetric, tabular, sub to euhedrales, with development of forms {010}, {100}, {110}, {130}, {011}, {111} in different combinations. Found in the intermediate areas, including in plagioclase, microcline or primary phosphates. Alluvial crystals are prismatic or tabular thicknesses and often have vertical striations. They are black, fragile and have metallic sheen to submetallic. |

Ancient lead, zinc, silver and baryte mining area. Located approx. 6 km NW of Peggau. It is quite likely that the Celts (300 B.C.) were the first to mine for silver in this area. The “newer” mines were worked with interruptions from the 16th century till 1954. Records go back to 1630 when Fürst Johann Ulrich von Eggenberg owned the mine. It changed hands several times until in 1927 it was owned by the Schurfgesellschaft Kogler und Lokar. In 1951 the Bleiberger Bergwerks Union (BBU) started to work the Glückaufstollen. In 1954 the mine was closed. In the 1970’s some exploration work was done by the BBU. Production for Arzwaldgraben and Rabenstein together in 1775 was about 220 metric tons of ore with 70 t of lead, 60 kg of silver and 93 t of galena. The production reached its peak during WWI with about 1’500 t of ore per year. In total these 2 mines produced approx. 15’000 t of lead, 1’500 t of zinc, 20 t of silver and a very small amount of baryte until 1954.The mine consisted of up to 12 adits, most of them are now caved in and overgrown. Still known are the Antonistollen (Erbstollen), the Josefistollen (still accessible in 2002), the Glückauf-Stollen, the Johann-Nepomuk-Stollen and the Oberer Grabbauer-Stollen.The minerals are found in the numerous mine dumps, but many of the dumps are now overgrown or have been covered by road works. |

Includes the Upper and Lower Blocherleitengraben ('Unterer & Oberer Blocherleitengraben'). Several outcrops and loose boulders of pegmatite. Rocks prevalent in this area are amphibolite and impure marble. The (red) elbaite has been found in a pegmatite in the Upper Blocherleitengraben.The accessory mineral assemblage in zircon- and xenotime-bearing samples (Kolitsch, 2017) is similar to that from the Písek pegmatites [Švecová E., Čopjaková R., Losos Z., Škoda R., Nasdala L. & Cícha J.

Pegmatite |
Millstatt lake ridgeRidge, Gurktal Alps |
Minerals from a large pegmatite block found 1984 near Laggerhof on the south shore of Millstatt lake, about 7 km E of Spittal. The block likely originates from one of the pegmatites near Spittal and was transported to its present position during the last ice age. Though, its exact provenance is still not known. |

Pegmatite boulders found on fields in the vicinity of Eibenstein. The pegmatite described in the papers by Ertl et al. (2004) is a tourmaline-, topaz-, and cassiterite-bearing elbaite-subtype pegmatite characterised by very Mn-rich fluorapatite.Not to be confused with the Hengl quarry at Eibenstein. This is a different locality. |

Unzoned, undifferentiated spodumene-rich pegmatites hosted by amphibolites and micaschists. During the 1980s, a prospection adit was driven. However, the ore turned out to need elaborate processing to enrich the spodumene, making the deposit unprofitable, so the prospect was closed in the early 1990s. Meanwhile, the adit has been backfilled, the dumps largely removed and the area recultivated.Currently (2012), new prospecting and drilling work is being done by an Australian company (European Lithium). "Construction could start by early 2019 and production by the end of 2020." (Company website accessed 24 Sept. 2017). Situation in June 2023. The start of mining is scheduled for 2025.Located on the northeast slope of the Brandrücken, about 2 km east of the Weinebene. |

Pegmatite occurrence in biotite bearing paragneiss of the Gföhl unit, situated about 500m Northwest of the village Maigen. Discovered in 1987, it gained importance as one of the very few pegmatites in Lower Austria yielding colored tourmalines, including the largest elbaite crystals found in Austria. Excavations took place in January and October 1988, with permission of the land owner.Note. the pale pink tourmalines ("rubellites") are usually zoned, with elbaite in the core and olenite in the periphery (Ertl, 1995). |

Corundum-bearing plagioclase rocks as loose boulders on the fields SW of Wolfsbach. The fields around Wolfsbach also contain boulders of serpentinite with opal and chalcedony, or, rarely, rounded blackish spinel with tiny inclusions of platinum-group minerals. In addition, the fields around Wolfsbach are well known for smoky quartz veins and weathered rutile crystals, and minor pegmatite occurrences. |

Active limestone quarry, located ca. 5 km east of the Namur city centre, north of the village of Beez.The quarry is currently operated by Sagrex, part of the HeidelbergCement Group, after being taken over from the Gralex Association following their reorganization in 2009.The relationship between the quarry management and mineralogists can be an example for other quarries in the region.Permits to enter the quarry for mineralogical prospection can be requested from the quarry management, and are regularly given to mineral clubs.Together with the La Sambre quarry at Landelies (http.//www.mindat.org/loc-296.html), the Beez quarry is among the finest sources of Belgian calcites.Note on the mineral list.Blondieau et al. (2012). "In the parts of the sulfide vein that are richest in zoned sphalerite, one observes small canary yellow efflorescences. These yellow coatings, often encountered in zoned sphalerites, generally correspond to a cadmium sulfide of the hawleyite or greenockite type. The EDS spectrum confirms the presence of cadmium and sulfur in these coatings. In this powdery material, it is difficult to distinguish the two species, but in Belgium, greenockite has never been identified, while the yellow coatings from Engis have been revealed to be hawleyite (Hatert et al., 2002). Locally, at the vein contact, a more oxidized zone has delivered centimetre-sized areas of lemon yellow hawleyite/greenockite, associated with hemimorphite and aragonite." |

Ottré is a village in the Belgian municipality of Vielsalm located in the province of Luxembourg in the Walloon Region. From 1823 until the merger of the municipalities in 1977, it was part of the municipality of Bihain.Stone was mined here for a long time. It was here that ottrélite was first discovered.The Golnay stream, a tributary of the Salm, has its source here.Mineralisation in quartz veins cutting Upper Salmian (Ordovician) Mn-rich metapelites (phyllades) (Hercynian metamorphism).South border of the Stavelot Massif. |

A quarry operated by the "Ardennes Coticule" company, it is the last remaining exploitation of Coticule in the region.Coticule is used (and has been for ages) as a whetstone, or sharpening stone.Coticule from the Lierneux-Vielsalm region has been exported all over the world.Coticule is a metamorphic quartzitic rock that owes its abrasive quality to microscopic spessartine garnets.The andalusite found in this quarry is greenish due to incorporation of Mn. |

The name "Siglo Veinte", often also written "Siglo XX", means "Twentieth Century" and was given because serious mining of the tin ores began at the beginning of the century in 1901.The mine is easily reached from Llallagua, a few minutes walk southwest of the city centre.It was acquired in the 1910s by Simón Iturri Patiño, who was dubbed the "King of Tin." It was the site of continual labour strife, and many of its workers were active in the Union Federation of Bolivian Mine Workers (FSTMB).The mine was nationalized following the "Bolivian National Revolution" of 1952 when the Revolutionary Nationalist Movement (MNR) and its allies overthrew the military junta. Siglo XX and other mines were placed under the control of a new state agency, the Corporación Minera de Bolivia (COMIBOL). The Catavi-Siglo XX complex became the largest component of COMIBOL.On June 24, 1967, government troops under the orders of General René Barrientos and a new military junta marched on the mine and committed the largest massacre of workers in Bolivian history. One witness and subsequent exile, Victor Montoya, put the casualties at twenty killed and seventy wounded. The incident was the basis for filmmaker Jorge Sanjinés's 1971 drama The Courage of the People.In 1987, as part of an economic restructuring deal with the IMF and World Bank, the government shut down production at Siglo XX. Currently, mining operations are undertaken by members of several large cooperatives who work independently or in small groups. |

Famous secondary phosphate locality. Eastern Brazilian Pegmatite Province.Note. There are at least 5 localities in Brazil which contain the name "Boa Vista". one is a pegmatite in Goias, one is a placer deposit in Espirito Santo, one is a diamond placer in Minas Gerais and two are pegmatites in Minas Gerais. The other Minas Gerais pegmatite mine is a famous source of euclase, the Boa Vista Euclase Pegmatite, Boa Vista, Rodrigo Silva, Ouro Preto, Minas Gerais, Southeast Region, Brazil.This Boa Vista pegmatite is in the Conselheiro Pena Pegmatite District in Conselheiro Pena County (note, not in Galiléia county as erroneously indicated on many labels (Luiz Menezes information, see. http.//www.mindat.org/mesg-11-183004.html). |

The Conselheiro Pena Pegmatite District lies 50-100 km southeast of Governador Valadares where it stretches about 110 km from SW to NE.The district includes more than 205 pegmatites that have been mined.Over 50 minerals have been found in the district, including much gem-quality tourmaline, aquamarine, morganite, and kunzite besides industrial materials such as K-feldspar, albite, mica, and beryl ore.Many of the pegmatites are rich in phosphates, including the primary triphylite and montebrasite, and more than a dozen secondary phosphates for which the district is best known, most notably brazilianite and variscite.The district is also known for red rubellite and multi-color elbaite including blue-caps.Today the Conselheiro Pena pegmatites are mined mostly for industrial feldspar (mainly microcline), plus minerals for collectors.Tectonically, the Conselheiro Pena Pegmatite District lies within the Araçuaí Orogen, a structurally complex crustal segment created when two microcontinents collided during the Brasiliano Orogeny to form a portion of the southern supercontinent of Gondwana.Two-mica granites of the Urucum suite were generated during that orogeny at ca. 582 Ma, and pegmatites evolved by fractional crystallization from those.Most pegmatite bodies in the district are tabular or lenticular, but a few are tear-drop shaped.The pegmatites solidified at a temperature of about 600 degrees C and under pressures of 4-5 kbar, corresponding to depths of 12-15 km (Nalini et al., 2015).They intruded mostly along steeply-dipping strike-slip shear zones in the metamorphics of the Rio Doce Group.These rocks include sillimanite-staurolite-garnet-mica schist with interbedded marble, metawackes, and metaquartzites that were originally marine sedimentary rocks deposited in a narrow seaway that once separated the two colliding microcontinents. |

A gemstone and specimen mine in pegmatites. Safira pegmatite district, Eastern Brazilian pegmatite province.Note on the mineral list. for "coeruleolactite" see references and information given for Planerite-Turquoise Series.Mine Information. This is one of the most important gem and specimen mines in the world. It was mined from about 1915, firstly for mica (muscovite), and was a major producer during WWII, after which mining efforts dropped dramatically. In the 1950s, mining resumed for tourmaline and other minerals.Specimen mine accessed via a 4ft x 5ft adit that intercepts and follows the pegmatites via drifts, winzes, and at least one shaft for ventilation. Development work utilizes drill+blast, but gem areas are excavated using hand-mining methods.Regional Geology. In the southeast corner of the Macacos quadrangle a relatively large and arcuate mass of medium- to coarse-grained metagabbro is associated with talc schist and serpentinite in terrain of Rio das Velhas series rocks. The metagabbro consists of actinolite, hornblende, plagioclase (mostly albite), clinozoisite, and zoisite. Commonly the metagabbro is separated from the serpentinite by a zone of talc schist. Evidence found underground at the southwest end of the main level in the Cruzeiro asbestos mine indicates that the metagabbro has been partly altered, or replaced by talc near the contact with the serpentinite. In most places, this zone is sheared, resulting in talc schist, although the rock locally retains a gabbroic texture and appearance even when it is composed mostly of talc.Mine Geology. There are at least five distinct pegmatites worked in the mine. They are hosted by Precambrian quartzites, mica schists, and amphibolites. The "amphibolites" are probably altered ultramafics, with olivine, pyroxene, and garnet (pyrope). Association minerals indicate the pegmatites are rich in lithium, boron, beryllium, manganese, tin, niobium, tantalum, phosphorus, uranium, and copper.The pegmatites are classically zoned granite pegmatites and from the border to the core, the zones are typically 1. A thin mica-rich selvage 2. The main border zone of granitic rock 3. The outer intermediate zone with muscovite rich granite 4. The inner intermediate zone, mostly K-feldspar 5. The central zone, of most I interest mineralogically, with coarse-grained quartz and K-feldspar, and vugs with albite, tourmaline, and spodumene 6. A quartz coreSince the formation is weathered; with feldspars altered to kaolin, and spodumenes altered to montmorillonite; the tourmalines are typically recovered without matrix. Tourmaline indicators are cleavelandite, 'Lepidolite', and coatings of iron-manganese oxides and phosphates. |

Mine Information. This mine produced large quartz crystals showing the so-called "cathedral habit"; long and thin dark-green elbaite crystals (up to 5 cm long) were found growing outside and/or inside the quartz crystals; in 2000 few hundreds of clusters of centimetric like pink fluorapatite crystals were found.Regional Geology. Regionally the geology comprises Archean metamorphics--mainly schists and gneisses--emplaced by sheet-like granite pegmatites varying in thickness from 3 to 11 meters and nearly horizontal. |

Iron oxide-Cu-Au-(Mo-Ag-U-REE) deposit, consisting of a hydrothermally altered breccia underlain by basalt and iron-formation and overlain by siltstone and greywacke. The breccia contains clasts of altered basalt, chert and iron-formation in a matrix of chlorite, magnetite, carbonates and chalcopyrite. The orebody has a strongly weathered gossaniferous cap that extends to depths of 200 m. Gold and chalcopyrite are the main ore minerals. Strong hydrothermal alteration of the host sequence produced intense chloritisation, Fe-metasomatism, Cu-sulphidation (chalcopyrite and bornite), carbonatisation, silicification, tourmalinisation and biotitisation in the primary zone.The mine was started in 1990 and produced about 98 tons of gold until 2002, when Vale ceased the operation.A deeper orebody, Alemão (Cu-rich), was reached in the end of the operation. |

This is a gem mine discovered in 1977 in lithium pegmatite of the Conselheira Pena pegmatite district, Eastern Brazilian Pegmatite Province. It is most famous for its red elbaite (rubellite). A single pocket (miarolitic cavity) of about 2 x 2.5 x 3 meters yielded 3.6 tons of high-quality rubellite crystals, including 200 kg of cutting-quality gem rough, and three of the world's best rubellite crystals, two of about a meter in length that sold for around a million dollars each in 1978. Total production from that pocket would be valued at about $50 million today. In the early 1990s, another pocket yielded large reddish muscovite crystals to several centimeters across, on albite. |

Li-Cs pegmatite, famous for a find of deep blue maxixe/maxaxite aquamarine in 1917. Unfortunately the color quickly faded to a whitish yellow after exposure to light. The color is probably caused by the replacement of a missing atom by a vibrating electron in the structure creating a color center, caused by natural radiation. |

Gondites and queluzites, the metamorphosed manganese protores, are regularly distributed in the Greenstone Belt, occupying narrow and elongated zones in the metabasaltic and metaultrabasic parts. These protores were cut by granodioritic bodies, pegmatitic and aplitic veins and faults. (from Mineralienatlas)A sedimentary assemblage of cherts, mudstones, and manganoferrous carbonates originally belonging to a metamorphosed greenstone sequence and hosted in Precambrian schists. The depositional setting is interpreted as within a bowl of the ocean floor, and evolved from a divergent margin with a volcanogenic contribution, and then later subject to sedimentary processes; mainly flows and chemical sedimentation turbidites. These are overlain by the ore--a mantle of Mn oxides created by hydrothermal weathering of carbonates and silica within the sediments extending to the pit depth (200m as of 2019) and as much as 60km along strike.Ores are rhodochrosite, and spessartine and rhodonite. Gangue minerals are quartz, huntite, annite, phlogopite, clinochlore, and rutile (all unconfirmed).Conselheiro Lafaiete was formely named Queluz de Minas. |

A gemstone and specimen mine in pegmatite located in the northern part of the Oriental Pegmatite Province of Minas Gerais. The pegmatite measures 400m in length and an average thickness of 30 m, has a N_S strike and dips 70° W. The pegmatite was found in 1991. The largest of three pockets (est.. 10 x 15 meters) produced abundant, quality rubellite crystals and masses, flooding the local markets. Wholesale lots of a ton or more of elbaite/rubellite were offered on the market. |

The Serra das Éguas district is also known in the literature as the Brumado district (Cassedanne & Cassedanne 1978). It is a large hilly area (approx. 5 x 15 km2) with several magnesite (& talc) pits around Brumado. One of the world's largest magnesite deposits is located in this district.The Pomba pit is above the Pedra Preta open pit mine further up the hill/mountain (Rock Currier information, based in 1988 field trip). |

The São João do Piauí deposit is situated in the igneous mafic-ultramafic Brejo Seco–Piauí Complex in the São Francisco craton. The deposit is set within a terrain of intensely deformed volcanic, volcano–sedimentary and sedimentary rocks of Precambrian age that have been intruded by mafic-ultramafic bodies. These mafic-ultramafic bodies are differentiated and comprise serpentinised ultramafics at their base with the upward progression towards troctolites, metagabbros and anorthosites. The entire sequence has been intruded by granitic and granodioritic bodies and is unconformably overlain by sediments of the Sierra Grande Formation, Pimenteiras Formation and Cabeças Formation.[1] |

The Sapucaia mine is approximately 60 km due east of Governador Valadares, and 16 km ENE of Galiléia. It lies within the Conselheiro Pena Pegmatite District [Aimorés pegmatite district according to Morteani et al. (2000)] of the Eastern Brazilian Pegmatite Province. Mining began in the early part of the 20th century, but the time of greatest activity was during the Second World War, when the mine produced industrial beryl and muscovite. It still produces feldspar and rare minerals for collectors.The Sapucaia Pegmatite intrudes garnet-staurolite-muscovite-biotite schists of the São Tomé Formation (Rio Doce Group) and sericite quartzites of the Crenaque Group, all of Neoproterozoic age. The pegmatite forms a lenticular body elongated in a NW-SE direction and dips at about 70 degrees to the NE. Weathering processes and the introduction of metasomatic fluids led to the formation of many secondary phosphates. The pegmatite is lithium-rich and is the type locality for ten minerals, all of them phosphates. Among collectors, the mine is best-known for the phosphates (especially iron-rich ones) and rose quartz. It is NOT known for any tourmaline group mineral or any variety of beryl or spodumene.(Modified by NK, September 2016.) |

At least 16 stone quarries in the Al-P quartzites occur as an approximately 30 m thick horizon. The dimension stones are sold with the commercial names “Azulde Macaúbas”®, “Azul Imperial”® or “Azul de Boquira”®. These massive and hard rocks display a beautiful colour contrast between the white quartzitic matrix and blue layers rich in lazulite and dumortierite. |

Phnom Bayong is a granite/granodiorite pluton located 120 south of Phnom Penh and 8 km from the Vietnamese border. It consists of 2 peaks separated by a valley, known locally as Phnom Saenachun and Phnom Ochlong (eastern side) and Phnom Preachabok (western side). Two working building stone quarries are located on the western side, one owned by a Chinese company, the other owned by Prime Minister Hun Sen's sister. Recent age dates gave 85.6 +/- 2.2 Ma, older than dates (71 Ma) given by Cheng et al. (2019). Gem mining at Phnom Bayong has been on-going for the last 20 years. Gems are mined from alluvial deposits as well as dug out of weather miarolitic cavities and pegmatite pockets. Fluorite is mined from veins 25 cm wide using fire-setting methods. P.Piilonen has observed smokey quartz crystals up to 1 m in length at gem stores in Phnom Penh, reported to have come from Phnom Bayong. All gem stones are cut in Kirivong, or sent to Phnom Penh. |

The Bugaboo Castles Property is located in British Columbia’s Southeast Mining Region and comprises 2 individual claims totalling 307 hectares. The property is within NTS Map Sheet 082K10, adjacent to the Bugaboo Glacier Park and approximately 50 km W from Radium Hot Springs and 65 km S from the town of Golden. The margins of the property are nearly accessible by truck but the property is predominantly helicopter access only. The property is underlain mainly by the Cretaceous aged Bugaboo Batholith, which intrudes variably deformed and metamorphosed metasedimentary turbiditic rocks of the Neoproterozoic Horsethief Creek Group. Gemstone mineralization is found primarily in interstitial segregations, quartz veins, aplites and pegmatites related to the Bugaboo Batholith. The intrusion itself has been lightly studied, however, the surrounding aureole has been the target of several academic investigations. Aquamarine and schorl tourmaline have been the focus of the exploration work, and these occurrences do not seem to have been formally reported in past investigations. Metasomatic garnet clots and bands hosted in limy sediments were also discovered. Mineralization at the Bugaboo Castles property is predominantly vein and pegmatite hosted, and it is assumed that they are directly related to the Bugaboo Batholith. The broader area is dominated by rocks of the Horsethief Creek Group, which was subsequently intruded by the Cretaceous Bugaboo Batholith. The east part of the intrusion is reported to be medium-grained leuco-quartz monzonite to coarse-grained biotite-muscovite granite. Minfile 082KNE006 describes a range of placer minerals (e.g., uraninite, allanite, rutile, titano-columbite, euxenite-polycrase, pyrochlore, monazite, uranothorite magnetite, ilmenite, apatite, andalusite, zircon, epidote, fluorite, garnet, hematite, pyrite, lepidocrocite, and sphene), supporting the notion that this intrusion has yielded complex mineral assemblages consistent with a geochemically evolved system. Brandon (1992), Brandon and Lambert (1993) and Brandon and Smith (1994) studied a number of intrusions in the area, providing evidence that the Bugaboo Batholith is an S-type granite. The prominent spires and excellent exposure in the area has made it an excellent study site for intrusion related metamorphism in metapelitic rocks (e.g., Pattison and DeBuhl 2015, Petley-Ragan 2015, Petley-Ragan et al 2016). Petley-Ragan (2015) provides an excellent overview of the geological setting. While the work has an emphasis on the metamorphic processes, they describe the batholith as follows. The Bugaboo batholith is a steeply dipping composite granitic intrusion that covers approximately 130 km2. The batholith is comprised of hornblende-biotite granodiorite to the west and biotite granite the east. The biotite granite is porphyritic with phenocrysts of potassium feldspar and a matrix of 5 vol. % biotite, 25 vol. % quartz and 35 vol. % each of potassium feldspar and plagioclase. Altered plagioclase encloses randomly oriented secondary muscovite crystals while biotite is being replaced by both muscovite and chlorite. The hornblende-biotite granodiorite is aphanitic to phaneritic with approximately 5 vol. % hornblende, 10 vol. % biotite, 15 vol. % potassium feldspar, 20 vol. % quartz and 50 vol. % plagioclase. The Fry Creek, Horsethief Creek and White Creek batholiths consist of biotite granite that is similar to what is found in the Bugaboo batholith. The presence of veins, pegmatite and aplite has been briefly noted in previous reports, but no systematic documentation has been recorded and in the public domain. An opportunity exists to establish tight controls on pegmatite emplacement conditions (e.g., P-T-t-x) based on the other petrological work conducted. In addition, carbonate bearing stratigraphy of the Horsethief Creek formation provides a setting for euhedral garnet growth. |

Consolidated Morrison pegmatite is hosted in mafic metavolcanic rocks of the Uchi Domain. The Consolidated Morrison pegmatite is reported by Mulligan (1965) to be a 9 m wide pegmatite dike that has been traced for a strike length of approximately 30 m. Breaks et al. (2003) indicate that this is a muscovite-tourmaline-spodumene pegmatite that contains spessartine, managanocolumbite, calcium-bearing, iron-rich elbaite and rare schorl. It represents one of several pegmatites drilled by Consolidated Morrison over a strike length of approximately 1 km (Breaks et al. 2003). |

A series of pegmatite suites within a Proterozoic greenstone belt.The Northern Series are beryl-columbite type pegmatites and contains the #22 dyke that is a multiple type-locality. The Southern Series contains many spodumene-bearing dykes but little phosphate.Both series are rich in columbite-tantalite but the individual pegmatites are too small for commercial production. |

Formerly. Demix-Varennes quarry, Saint-Amable sill, Varennes & St-Amable, Verchères Co., Québec, Canada.The Demix-Varennes quarry is an operating quarry and has been characterized by some collectors as a "mini Mont Saint-Hilaire" owing to the similarity of its mineralogy (see Mineralogical Record 29, 83-118). With over 130 mineral species, it is the second most prolific mineral locality in Canada. It is the type locality of varennesite, hydroterskite and co-type locality of kukharenkoite-(Ce). The quarry exploits a nepheline syenite sill for crushed stone. The quarry overlies the municipal boundary of the towns of Varennes and Saint-Amable, hence both names are in the locality string. The quarry gate is located at the Varennes end but the current workings and crushing plant are in St-Amable (approx. 2.4 km from the gate). Three small abandoned quarries known as the Bau-Val quarries adjoin the Demix-Varennes quarry on the northwest.The main sill in the quarry, known as the Saint-Amable sill, varies in thickness from 3 to 24 m. It is underlain by several thin sills, less than one-metre thick; one of these sills angles up as a dike truncating at the main sill contact. The sills are genetically part of the Monteregian alkaline igneous province of Cretaceous age. They intrude Lorraine Group black shale of Upper Ordovician age.The minerals of interest to collectors occur in thin seams; small, generally flattened,cavities; and elongated tubular cavities called "worm-holes". Rarely, larger pod-like intergrowths of sodium-rich, highly alkaline minerals have been encountered. Most of the minerals occur as well-formed microcrystals, typically a few millimetres in size. |

Mine. Open-pit chrysotile asbestos mine, measuring some 2 km in diameter and eventually reaching a depth of 350 m. Mining began in 1879. In 1950 an attempt was made to switch to block caving but was abandoned after 10 years. In 1969 the pit was expanded, requiring the relocation of the adjacent town. However, world demand for asbestos fell drastically in the 1980s when its carcinogenic properties became known and worldwide bans were implemented on its use as a building material. In 1996, in an attempt to mine a high-grade area at the bottom of the pit, another attempt was made to switch to underground methods, but government subsidies were exhausted in 2001, and since then the mine has been inactive.Regional Geology. While the ultramafics of the Thetford-Ham area are a typical ophiolite complex, their origin remains controversial. "Ophiolite" is a term referring to an assemblage of ultramafic and mafic intrusive and extrusive rocks, widely believed to represent oceanic crust. Such complexes are characteristic of many orogenic fold-mountain chains and are sometimes preserved when an island arc system is scraped off of one tectonic plate as it collides with and is subducted under another plate, creating fold mountains. However, others have concluded that the ultramafic rocks of southern Quebec and Vermont are not oceanic crust remnants because many are intrusive, with peridotite the most common, and that Precambrian outcrops in the area appear to be continental, not oceanic crust. They suggest instead that the ultramafic rocks are from the upper mantle, emplaced as solid intrusions during deformation of the Appalachians. Still others propose that perhaps the Quebec ultramafic rocks represent gigantic submarine extrusions or feeder conduits for submarine eruptions.Local Geology. The Serpentine Tectonic Belt of the Lower Ordovician rocks of the Appalachians comprise serpentinized dunite, chromitite, pyroxenite and peridotite, all intruded by diorite, syenite, granite, gabbro and ultramafic to intermediate volcanic rocks. The dunite and peridotite that are associated with the asbestos deposits were heavily serpentinized in successive stages soon after crystallization, especially where sheared and intruded by granitic to dioritic masses and in a later phase of serpentinization, shears zones and fractures channelled the asbestos-forming solutions. Later dike intrusions into the dunite and peridotite formed irregularly and, as at the diorite contact zone with the serpentinized zones, they tended to facilitate replacement mineralization. Calcium- and aluminium-rich fluids were deposited in joints and shears in the diorites and ultramafics, and occasionally were intruded as discrete dikes called rodingites. |

This is a huge (1400 x 500 m) limestone quarry currently worked by the Lafarge Group. It was opened in 1909 by Canada Cement. The quarry is in Montréal-Est (Montreal-East) a separate municipality on the Island of Montreal. Montréal in the locality name refers to the Montréal TE (territory equivalent to an MRC or RCM), and not the city of Montreal.The quarry was operated for some years by Francon Ltd., the same company that operated the famous Francon quarry, and for some time was also known as Francon Montréal-Est. This was the source of some confusion for collectors unfamiliar with quarries.The limestone is intruded by an enormous dyke of camptonite up to 4-6 m thick (see photo), which is exposed for a length of over 1 km in the quarry. This dyke is remarkable for phenocrysts of Ti-bearing magnesio-hastingsite up to 10 cm in size. There are also alkaline sills (see photo) probably related to the Monteregian alkaline province (Mont St-Hilaire etc.). The minerals, typical for alkaline complexes, occur mostly in tiny cavities in the igneous sills. This was the second known locality for weloganite.The MRNF (Quebec Province's department of natural resources) provides the following description .The strata which dip 3 degrees eastward belong to the Trenton Group (Tetreauville Formation). The compact, bluish-black limestone is in very regular beds up to 15 cm thick, separated by clay interbeds. |

Formerly. Leduc Mine, St-Pierre-de-Wakefield, Wakefield Township, Gatineau Co., Québec, CanadaThe only lithium-enriched granitic pegmatite in the Grenville Province.According to Lussier et al (2019) the cores of the color-zoned crystals are fluor-elbaite and the thin black outer zone or mantle is schorl. Crystals range from less than 1 cm to about 75 cm in length. They occur in two distinct morphological forms. narrow sprays of sub-parallel crystals growing from a common base, and thick, prismatic terminated crystals. The tourmaline is embedded and generally too fractured for cutting into gemstones.Coordinates extrapolated from topographic map. |

The mineralization is specifically contained within the 1.8-3 by 8 km Mavis Lake pegmatite group (MPG), that comprises a swarm of rare-element class granitic pegmatites and associated metasomatic zones genetically related to the 2685 Ma, S-type, peraluminous, fertile Ghost Lake batholith (GLB). The eastern and southeastern limits of the rare-element mineralization, associated with albite-type pegmatites on the Mavis Lake Property, remains open to the east and southeast. A swarm of these pegmatites occurs within a minimum area of 500 by 800 m on the Property and consist of sodic aplite and albitite mineralized with tantalite, columbite, wodginite, white beryl and local green lithium tourmaline and amblygonite-montebrasite series minerals |

The McCombe pegmatites is hosted in mafic metavolcanic rocks of the Uchi Domain, McCombe consists of two pegmatite dikes that have been traced for an east-west strike length of 550 m (Breaks et al. 2003). These pegmatites exhibit internal zoning, are highly evolved, and have been classified as complex-type, spodumene-subtype by Breaks et al. (2003). Mulligan (1965) reports that a 1956 diamond drilling program on the McCombe prospect by Capital Lithium Mines outlined a 2,333,752 tonne (2,297,000) ton deposit grading 1.3% Li2O. Breaks et al. (2003) report tantalum assays of up to 380 ppm from 24 bulk rock samples collected from across the two dikes. |

A tungsten-molybdenum-bismuth-tin mine started at the end of 1983. Located 35 miles SW of Fredericton. Formerly owned by Billiton Canada (Brunswick Tin Mines, Ltd. & Billiton) now by Adex Mining Co.This is the cotype locality for petrukite, the second reported locality in the world for dzhalindite, and a locality for the very rare minerals jeanbandyite and zairite. It is also the first Canadian report of plumbogummite and plumboferrite.Several of the minerals have so far only been reported from the till. anglesite, beudantite, eulytine, plumboferrite, plumbogummite, and zairite.It is the world's largest reserve of indium. |

The Lilypad Lakes occurrences are hosted within numerous pegmatite dikes ranging from several centimeters to tens of metres wide (Taylor et al., 2005). The majority of the dikes are reported to strike in an approximately east-west direction (i.e., 240 to 270). However, numerous dikes oriented in an approximately north-south direction are also present. Diamond drilling information indicates that the dikes are also typically continuous to a depth of at least 100m. A number of types of pegmatite dikes were identified by Breaks and Tindle (2004). These deposits belong to the rare-element class of the LCT (lithium-cesium-tantalum) geochemical family, and include albite-type, albite-spodumene type, and complex-type (spodumene and elbaite-subtypes) pegmatites. Details regarding the specific characteristics of the six occurrences/deposits listed above are provided below. Taylor et al. (2005) recognize evidence of two principal regional deformation events in the vicinity of these deposits. Both events have affected the pegmatite dikes and host rocks. The earliest deformation event is characterized by a strong to intense penetrative to locally-spaced cleavage in the metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks. This fabric approximately parallels stratigraphy in the supracrustal rocks. This fabric is also weakly developed in the more competent pegmatite dikes, and has been noted in the northern portions of the Kawitos Lake batholith. This fabric is likely to have been related to a regional N-S compressional event, and is axial planar to isoclinal folds. A second later strain event is represented by crenulation folds that overprint the earlier fabric. With the esceprion of the Spodumene dike, most pegmatites show little evidence of having been impacted by the second deformation event. These deposits are likely to be genetically related to the Kawitos Lake batholith, which has been identified by Breaks and Tindle (2004) as a potential fertile S-type granite pluton similar to others that are located near the Uchi-English River Subprovince boundary. |

Formerly. Poudrette quarry (Demix quarry; Uni-Mix quarry; Carrière Mont Saint-Hilaire), Mont Saint-Hilaire, Rouville RMC (& Rouville Co.), Montérégie, Québec, Canada.The Poudrette quarry now incorporates the Demix quarry workings, which in turn incorporated the older Desourdy and Uni-Mix quarries. The Demix quarry ceased operations and was sold to the Poudrette family in 1994 and now forms part of the central and the west side of the Poudrette quarry. Since some of the early descriptions of new species were from the Demix quarry, it is useful to retain the name as "former Demix quarry, now the western part of the Poudrette quarry."Note. In late 2007 the Poudrette quarry changed ownership and the Poudrette family is no longer involved. The current name of the quarry is Carrière Mont Saint-Hilaire. Under the current (2019) policy of the owner, collecting is restricted to a small number (2-3) field trips per year, to small groups (drawn by lottery) of registered members of the Club de Minéralogie de Montréal, under very strict rules.Please note that the flooded area in the south corner shown in the 2012 photo (505035) is now (2016) drained and the quarrying operations are proceeding on level 10 (bottom of flooded pit), along the SW wall (photo 777705).I would strongly advise that for now we keep the Poudrette quarry name, as it has been well established in the minds of collectors and in the mineralogical literature for the last 50 years. Furthermore, with few exceptions all the minerals (including recently described type minerals) on the species list below have been collected before 2007. The current quarry name has not appeared as the primary name in any mineralogical publications to date. [updated by L. Horváth 2019 Dec 22]. |

Granitic pegmatite in leucomonzogranite. Pit was dug around 1903-1906. It has been filled in for many years.Large smoky and white quartz crystals to 27x10 inches were found, along with a large number of other minerals, including a few rare ones.This locality was the first in Canada to report amblygonite, however a chemical analysis by Walker and Parsons (1924) shows that the material is "unusually low in fluorine and very high in water" and there is "an unusual replacement of fluorine by hydroxyl". This is supported by MinDat comments regarding amblygonite and montebrasite (i.e. nearly all reported amblyonite from granites is actually montebrasite). Thus the mineral is actually montebrasite and the mineral list now reflects that. |

The Richardson Mine on Lot l, Concession 2 of Bedford Township is the largest feldspar producer in Ontario. Between 1900 and 1951 it produced 228,690 tons of feldspar. In 1951 estimates of the total amount of feldspar removed by 1944 was 250,000 tons. The mine reopened in 1946 and was active until 1951. (Hewitt, 1967)The workings are 500 feet in length, 200 feet in width, and 150 feet deep.At the present time the pit is completely water filled The walls of the dike are the only accessible part of the pegmatite remaining, and then only by boat. It seems that portions of the surrounding dumps have been used locally as a source of road building material.The granite pegmatite dike strikes northnortheast and dips steeply to the west. The dike cuts metagabbro and paragneiss, which make up the west wall of the dike.History 1901-Kingston Feldspar and Mining Company. 1916-Feldspar, Ltd., of Toronto. 1928-Genesee Feldspar Company, Rochester, New York. |

The Salo deposit is located along an old bush road, about 1 1/2 miles southwest of Georgia Lake. Striking N.80 degrees E for 350 feet, the dike is up to 30 feet wide and forms a north-facing escarpment. The pegmatite dike has potash feldspar crystals up to up to 3 feet in length, and prismatic crystals of spodumene up to 2 feet in length. in a matrix of feldspar, quartz, subordinate muscovite, and apatite. Drilling showed that the dike terminated against metasediments 23 to 28 feet below surface. The Salo pegmatite is made up of elongated crystals of potash feldspar, up to 3 feet in length, and prismatic crystals of spodumene, up to 2 feet in length, in a matrix of feldspar, quartz, subordinate muscovite, and a little accessory apatite. Its spodumene content is about 25 percent.Nearby there are outcrops of mica schist with "well-formed staurolite crystals". (Sabina 1965). |

The Separation Lake area (not a formal geographic name rather an area around the lake that includes primarily Paterson Lake Area & the Treelined Lake Area) is host to the most important rare-element pegmatites in Ontario, Canada. They include the Big Whopper and Big Mack petalite pegmatite systems which potentially represent the world's second largest lithium deposit of this type. The pegmatites occur in two distinct clusters adjacent to the Separation Rapids pluton which is thought to be the source of the rare-elements. Beryl-type and complex-, petalite-subtype pegmatites are the most common and a few pegmatites have characteristics similar to the 'Lepidolite'-subtype. There are currently 29 recognized pegmatites in the area. |

The position of the Waitabit Creek cookeite occurrence is somewhat uncertain, but is thought to be about 2 - 3 kilometres north of the small settlement of Donald and 27 kilometres west-northwest of Golden, British Columbia. Note that in some places this stream is referred to as Wait-a-bit Creek. The name reflects the fact that “Early travelers descending the upper Columbia River would wait a bit, resting and trimming the load of their canoes before entering the rapids here.” (Akrigg & Akrigg, 1973, p. 185) There is very little information regarding the setting of the occurrence. It is within an extensive area of outcrop in the creek of Upper Cambrian and Lower Ordovician McKay Group rocks, described by Wheeler (1963) as “green, grey, pale brown, pale grey to silvery limy slate and limestone, limestone-conglomerate and breccia.” Hoffmann (1895) reported the host rock of the cookeite as sericite-schist, with a “. . . foliated structure, a light brownish-gray to light reddish-brown colour, a faintly glistening lustre, and an unctuous talc-like feel.” Comments by Giles Peatfield on some of the minerals reported from the locality. Azurite. Hoffmann (1892) reported “. . . here and there . . . a little blue and green carbonate of copper.” I have assumed this to be azurite (and malachite, see below). Cookeite. This was originally described by Hoffmann (1892), and tentatively identified as cookeite, based on various chemical tests performed by R. A. A. Johnston in the Government laboratory. Hoffmanns’s comment was that “The specimen will be submitted to analysis and its exact composition determined.” Shortly thereafter, Hoffmann (1893) appears to have been satisfied with the identification, as he listed the specimen with no qualification as included in the “Systematic Collection of Minerals” of the Geological Survey of Canada. Hoffmann (1895) then reported the mineral from this locality, including a chemical analysis performed by R. A. A. Johnston in the Government laboratory. It was then reported by Johnston (1915, p. 76), who incidentally noted that it had also been identified in “galenite” at Ottertail Creek [River?] near Field, British Columbia. Traill (1970, p. 162) reported that the mineral had been X-ray confirmed in the “X-ray Laboratory, Geol. Surv. Can.”, and listed the seven strongest lines of the pattern, as well as reporting the Johnston analysis in Hoffmann (1895). Finally, Traill (1983, p. 114) reported cookeite from the locality but did not give the X-ray data, although he repeated the Johnston analysis. “Limonite”. Hoffmann (1892) mentioned that the quartz vein material was “. . . in parts stained with ferric hydrate . . . .” by which I assume he meant limonite, or some other related hydrous iron oxide. Malachite. See note above for azurite. Sericite. This was reported by Hoffman (1895), with an analysis performed by R. A. A. Johnston in the Government laboratory.

The Bailongshan lithium polymetallic pegmatite deposit is geologically situated in the eastern part of Tianshuihai terrane, contains a resource of 5.06 Mt (million tons) Li2O, 160 kt BeO, 316 kt Rb2O, 41 kt Nb2O5, and 11 kt Ta2O5, and belongs to a lithium-cesium-tantalum (LCT)-type deposit. Spodumene is the main Li-bearing mineral and considerable amounts of Li are carried by phosphates (amblygonite-montebrasite and amblygonite-montebrasite series). The Bailongshan deposit is divided into six ore segments (I-VI) from northwest to southeast, among which regional zonation is well-developed in segment Ⅴ and VI. According to the different mineral assemblages and textures, seven pegmatite zones (i to vii) could be identified away from the muscovite granite, i.e., (i) quartz-albite-tourmaline, (ii) blocky albite-quartz-tourmaline, (iii) medium-coarse-grained quartz-tourmaline, (iv) layered aplite, (v) quartz-muscovite, (vi) quartz-albite-spodumene, and (vii) quartz-spodumene. Pegmatites from zone i-v are barren, whereas those from zone vi-vii are Li ore-bearing without inner zonation.[1] The LCT family and the ore-bearing pegmatite. |

Rare‐metal deposit has been discovered to be associated with the Mufushan composite granite. A series of N-, SE-, NE-striking fault groups and NE-striking ductile shear zones cut the metasedimentary rocks and control the development of pegmatite dikes in the district. Two-mica granites, granitic pegmatite, granitic aplite and granite porphyry are common in the Baishawo deposit. Additionally, zoned rare metal pegmatites containing economic minerals such as beryl, spodumene, and coltan are present. |

Bittern-salt lake |
Hindukush Himalayan Region |
A large bittern-salt lake in the Gangdise Mountains in the interior of the Tibetan Plateau. The lake consists of two sub-basins, a southern and a northern one, which are joined by a narrow channel. The lake has a total area of 243 km2, a mean depth of 70 cm, and a maximum depth of less than 2 m. The salt content of the lake water is 360-410 g/l. The basin originated through faulted structures. The underlying bedrock is Cretaceous-Eogene acidic igneous rocks, mudstones and sandstones. A large area of playa is being exposed around the lake, and mirabilite is currently being deposited in the lake.Zabuye Salt Lake covers an area of 243 km2 at an average elevation of about 4421 m. It is a semi-dry salt lake with a combination of surface brine and salt flats. Large-scale ancient travertine accumulation developed in the middle of the lake and formed a travertine island. From the travertine island as the starting point to the west, a sand embankment was formed that divides Zabuye Lake into south and north lakes, and there is a waterway connecting the two on the east side. The springs around and in the lake are relatively well developed, and those on the travertine island have the largest water inflow. |

Qilian Mountains |
The Chakabeishan pegmatite dikes are irregularly distributed along the northern side of the Zongwulongshan Southern Margin Fault, and occur as lenses and veins with widths of 1–6 m and lengths of 5–60 m. The rare-element pegmatites can be divided into barren, spodumene, and 'Lepidolite' pegmatites, based on mineralogy. The spodumene pegmatites are further divided into A- and B-type spodumene pegmatites, mainly according to the different wall rocks.[1]There are ca. 800 LCT-type pegmatite dykes in the CKBS deposit, which were derived from high fractional crystallization of granitic magmas. These pegmatite dykes occurred in the Paleoproterozoic Dakendaban Group schist Formation and the Ordovician quartz diorite. The elongation of these pegmatites varies but generally shows NW-SE trending with varying dipping (23°–83°). These pegmatite dykes are ca. 10–400 m in length and ca. 0.5–5 m in width. Since its first discovery in 2018, Li-Be resources of ca. 14,200 t Li2O and ca. 7000 t BeO have been identified.[2] |

Large-scale Li-REE pegmatite deposit, consisting of 71 granitoid pegmatite veins cutting Hercynian plagioclase granite and two mica granite. About 26 veins contain Li, Be, Ta, and Nb. Vein no. 112 is the largest; it consists of an EW-trending main vein with branches, is 1100 m long and trends NS. Six mineralization zones are observed. (1) albite-moderate-coarse grained microcline; (2) albite; (3) quartz-albite-pyroxene; (4) quartz-albite; (5) sugary albite; and (6) quartz albite. All but the last zone contain spodumene, of which the largest observed crystal measured 60 x 240 cm. |

Altai Mountains |
A highly evolved, rare-element class, LCT-type granitic pegmatite of the spodumene-subtype category. The largest Li-Be-Nb-Ta-Cs pegmatite-hosted rare-metal deposit in the Chinese Altai orogenic belt. Exploited for pollucite, spodumene, 'Lepidolite', beryl and columbite-tantalite.The Koktokay No. 3 pegmatite intruded metagabbro. It shows a well-developed internal textural zonation, both in the thin but extensive subhorizontal bottom section, and in the cupola. The cupola-shaped part is 250 × 250 × 250 m in length, width, and depth. From the outermost textural zone inward, nine mineralogical-textural zones can be distinguished. (1) graphic pegmatite zone; (2) sugary albite zone; (3) blocky microcline zone; (4) muscovite-quartz zone; (5) cleavelandite-spodumene zone; (6) quartz-spodumene zone; (7) platy albite-muscovite zone; (8) 'Lepidolite'-platy albite zone; (9) blocky quartz and microcline core (Wang et al. 1981; Zhu et al. 2000; Wang et al. 2006). |

Magmatic-hydrothermal gold deposit. The Longtougou gold deposit extends >2500 m E–W and ∼1000 m N–S. The deposit hosts a number of orebodies, with the seven largest orebodies termed I-1, II-1, III-1, IV-1, V-1, V-2, and VI-1. These orebodies are elongated WNW to EW, are generally parallel to each other but cross-cut the bedding of the host rocks, have transitional boundaries with the surrounding country rocks, and are generally delineated by chemical variations. The I-1 and IV-1 orebodies are larger than the other orebodies in the study area. Orebody I-1 is ∼1200 m long, 0.21–3.59 m wide, and has an average gold grade of 3.58 g/t. The orebody is fault controlled and vein-hosted and has good continuity, although it is undulatory, bifurcates, and reconnects in places.[1] |

Pegmatite |
Giant Sb metallogenic belt |
Granite pegmatite dykes with polymetallic rare-metal mineralizations (Ta-Nb-Zr-Hf-Be-Sn-W and minor U), hosted in volcaniclastic rocks of the Proterozoic Danzhou group along NE-trending second-order fractures within a narrow stretch of land between two NNE-trending shear zones along the eastern margin of a composite batholith, which is composed mainly of Caledonian medium-grained porphyritic biotite granite. The pegmatites are poorly differentiated and do not exhibit zoning phenomenons, but there is zoning observed within the field in that the tantalum, niobium and tin grades increase from the north to the south.The pegmatite field forms part of a U-W-Mo-Sn mineralization belt that extends for more than 100 km between Luzhai County of Liuzhou Prefecture and Quanzhou County of Guilin Prefecture. Within this belt, more than 50 deposits were discovered that cover a wide range of genetic types, including magmatic, pegmatite and skarn mineralizations, tin-bearing placers, and hydrothermal deposits formed at high to low temperatures. |

The Renli No. 5 pegmatite vein is located in the Lengjiaxi Group schist, 1.0–2.5 km away from Mufushan granite complex. The vein is 4040 m long, with the maximum thickness of 10.1 m. This vein strikes NW, and dips toward the SE with a dip angle of 25–56°. Field investigation combined with previous studies showed that mineral and textural zoning is well developed in the No. 5 pegmatite vein. The zonation sequence is as follows (from the margin to the core). The graphic-textured zone I → coarse-grain microcline-albite zone II → medium-grained muscovite-albite zone III → fine-grained garnet-muscovite-albite zone IV → 'Lepidolite'-quartz core zone V. Zone I is characterized by typical quartz + microcline + albite graphic texture, with a grain size of 3–10 mm and band width of ~0.8 m. Zone II, with a grain size of 7–15 mm and band width of ~4.7 m, is gradually transitioned from zone I. The pegmatite consists of dominantly coarse-grained microcline and albite, associated with muscovite, quartz, beryl, and tantalite. There is a gradual transition from zone II to III, as well. Zone III, with a grain size of 5–10 mm and a band width of ~5.7 m, is composed mainly of medium-grained albite, microcline, quartz, and muscovite, along with minor euhedral blue-green aquamarine. Zone IV, with a grain size of 1–5 mm and band width of ~5.7 m, has a sharp boundary with zone III. It is composed mainly of fine-grained albite, quartz, garnet, microcline, and muscovite, along with minor short columnar aquamarine and fine-grained scaly 'Lepidolite'. The 'Lepidolite'-quartz zone V has a grain size of 3–20 mm and band width of over 0.7 m. The main mineral assemblage includes 'Lepidolite', quartz, albite, microcline, and elbaite, as well as minor morganite, Cs-garnet, manganocolumbite, and columnar aquamarine.[1] |

W-Mo-Bi-Sn-Be-F skarn deposit, hosted by Devonian limestone in the thermal aureole of the Qianlishan granite complex. The latter comprises five separate intrusions, including fine-grained porphyritic biotite granite (granite 1), medium-grained biotite-K-feldspar granite (granite 2), fine-grained biotite and K-feldspar granite (granite 3), granitic porphyry (granite 4), and diabase. Its upper part is characterized by extensive greisen alteration. Skarn zones distributed around the intrusions are mainly calcic. Mineralization consists of Sn-Be veinlet ore in marble and porphyry, massive W-Bi-Mo-Sn skarn ore, stockwork W-Sn-Bi-Mo-F ore, and W-Sn-Mo-Bi greisen ore, mainly associated with granite 2. Emplacement of granite 2 was accompanied by late, intense fracturing characterized by stockwork mineralization, which was superimposed on massive skarn and greisen zones. The stockwork ore consists mainly of greisen and skarn veins and veinlets with scheelite, wolframite, molybdenite, cassiterite, bismuthinite, and fluorite.In addition, the mine area contains separate Pb-Zn-Ag ore bodies (occasionally referred to as Shizhuyuan Pb-Zn deposits in Chinese references), which have been mined extensively and also produced a fair amount of gold from Ag-Au alloys.Shizhuyuan is the largest polymetallic tungsten deposit in China. Ore reserves amount to 750,000 tonnes of WO3 ore, 490,000 tonnes of Sn ore, 300,000 tonnes of Bi ore, 130,000 tonnes of Mo ore and 200,000 tonnes of Be ore, with combined grades ranging from 1% to 5%. In addition, there are fluorite reserves of 7,000 tonnes, making it also one of the largest associated fluorite deposits in China.Located about 15 km SE of Chenzhou City.Note. Sun and Ren (1986) note that the Fe.Mn ratios of most wolframites are close to 50.50. According to analytical data presented by Tian (1982), ferberite shows a wide range of compositions, while hübnerite, which is generally less abundant at this locality, has typically only a slight excess of manganese over iron. |

Skarn-type Sn-Pb-Zn deposit. Estimated Sn metal amount of 134,000 tons and Pb-Zn metal amount of 178,000 tons. Located about 25 km north of Linwu and about 70 km SW of Chenzhou. The mineralization stages from early to late include stage I (prograde stage), stage II (retrograde stage), stage III (cassiterite-magnetite-arsenopyrite-topaz-quartz stage), stage IV (sphalerite-galena-pyrite-chalcopyrite-quartz-calcite stage). Stage II is the initial stage of Sn mineralization where only minor cassiterite precipitates, and stage III is the main Sn mineralization stage where abundant cassiterite precipitates.[1] |

In this ore field, the intrusion of three granite stocks into Cambrian sandstone and Devonian carbonates along the intersections of NE- and NW-trending faults resulted in the formation of three mineralization districts. Around the granites, different types of deposits are distributed as follows.- Magmatic Nb-Ta deposits in the upper part of the granites, - Greisen-type W, Sn, and minor Be deposits at the top of the granites, - Metasomatic Sn, W, Be deposits in the inner contact zones, - Metasomatic-hydrothermal Sn, W deposits in the outer contact zones, - Hydrothermal vein type Pb-Zn deposits far away from the contact zones.It contains 0.13 Mt Sn, 0.17 Mt Pb + Zn, 2.8 kt WO3, and 0.18 kt Ag. |

The Anningie pegmatite field is 20 kilometres north of the Anningie homestead, about 225 kilometres north of Alice Springs, and 30 kilometres as the crow flies west south-west of Barrow Creek. There are two areas of pegmatites, one called Anningie itself, which one source divides into the Reward in the southern area and Saddle Hole Dam northern area; the second called Murray Creek several kilometres to the south-east, either side of Murray Creek. The soon to be Mount Peake vanadium mine is found between the two locations.Access is difficult, the area being remote, permission need from the station, access tracks specifically to the pegmatites range from limited to non- existent, with a proposed major vanadium mine in the vicinity potentially further limiting access. One thumbnail cassiterite specimen has been found sold previously by an American dealer to a lucky collector. The pegmatites contain spodumene, 'Lepidolite' and elbaite, with no further information. An un-substantiated fossicker report states the Murray Creek section contains rubellite. Devil's dice, amethyst in a tributary of Stony Creek, and turquoise-blue quartz veins on a large ridge near Murray Creek (fluorite suggested by the source) is mentioned in passing in one exploration report with no further details.Tin (cassiterite) was discovered at what would become the Reward mine in 1935, said to be the most substantial in the area. Intermittent mining continued to 1944, of alluvial material by prospectors, but only about 25 tonnes of concentrate was recorded. A further 3.3 tonnes of concentrates was extracted in 1968-1969. Tantalite and galena is also reported. Ore minerals are said to be erratic, and overall a low value.The pegmatites are found in andalusite-micaeous schist and amphibolite (hornblende-actinolite-plagioclase) of the Lower Proterozoic Lander Beds, intruded by tourmaline bearing pegmatites. Regionally this is intruded by Carpentarian grey coarse porphyritic granite. Many of the pegmatites are barren. Some are radioactive indicating uranium bearing minerals, but modern exploration has found little. The pegmatites are quartz-alkali-feldspar-tourmaline, with minor muscovite, biotite, apatite, cassiterite and tantalite. The pegmatites intrude the amphibolite schists, but are sharply truncated at the margins with arenaceous schists. Cassiterite is found in greisen, with pale green muscovite. Pegmatite size ranges from 30 cms x 20 metres to 20 metres x 1000 metres.One un-named geologist for Todd River Resources stated the following just before this was written about modern exploration in the area. 'Each successive explorer had a different target, so the available data is shallow and poorly focussed. Each explorer was working to a different narrative, and some even to a different resource model'. |

The Anster pegmatite is in the vicinity of the Millar's Workings location, with the Tommy's Show, Easy, and Horizontal pegmatites also in the immediate area. Mindat map approximate.A single small pit tested a quartz blow, with coarse grained muscovite pegmatite 190 metres long, penetrating schist. It trends east south-east to east-west, discordant with the regional trend, dipping 32 degrees south, with an average width of 3 metres. It is terminated abruptly at either end by north north-west striking faults. |

This is a large pegmatite north of Morrissey Hill and is the northern most pegmatite in the Morrissey Hill area. There are several historic workings on the pegmatite but their history is unknown. It is a large albite rich pegmatite forming a west trending hill. Historically, badly fractured opaque green tourmaline crystals to 3 centimetres long, are known from here in albite and associated with milky quartz and fine grained 'Lepidolite'. |

Small, abandoned, open cut gold mine located 8 km SE of Coolgardie, in the Eastern Goldfields of WA (active from the 1890s until late 2000s.The mine worked the Barbara-Brown lode.The gold was worked in quartz lodes in metamafic greenstones of the Yilgarn Province but some pegmatite veins also occur.Around 1974, 'danalite-helvite' was discovered in a 0.3 to 1 metre thick pegmatite vein at this gold mine, and specimens have also been found on the huge mullock hill. EDS analysis by Excalibur Minerals has shown the material to be helvite, but many still refer to it as danalite-helvite, in reference to the original uncertainty when it was discovered.SEM-EDAX characterisation of crystals taken from a vugh opened in 2007 by Grguric and Downes (2009) showed all to be the helvite end-member, leading these authors to a more comprehensive examination of helvite-group minerals from the locality in the W.A. Museum collection. Twelve samples were analysed and all proved to be helvite with variable Fe (3 to 29 mol%) and Zn (0.4 to 15 mol%) substituting for Mn. The occurrence of danalite at the locality is now considered doubtful.The mine lies on the eastern extension of the Tindal's cross fold axis, in shear zones in the Hampton Ultramafic Belt. The ultramafics are metamorphosed interbedded mafic lavas, ultramafic rocks and schists, mafic intrusives, and sediments, all intruded by porphyry and alaskite (leucogranite) dykes. Gold is found in the shear zones, in ultramafics, close to the porphyry dykes. Some gold is also found in hybridised siliceous lodes, in folded and jointed porphyries, and mafic/ultramafic contacts. |

West Australian Element,Yilgarn Craton |
Located 58 km south east of Kambalda in the Coolgardie Mining District. Latitude. -31.51158 Longitude. 122.1586 Coordinates. 420103mE, 6513393mN. References. Minedex Database 2006.Bald Hill and Woodline are subsets of the Binneringie pegmatites.Cassiterite was first mined here in 1961 to 1964, then the site fell quiet until major mining took place from 2002. The site contains the North, South, West, Hill View and Hills End pits in close proximity to each other and Dawn View pit about 2 kilometres west north-west.The pegmatites form a series of flat-lying sheets, and deeply dipping veins, elongated in a northerly direction, and parallel to the regional foliation, ranging from a few metres to thirty metres thick, and in some instances as multiple parallel dykes separated by a few metres of sheared metasediments.The Bald Hill pegmatites contain a quartz-spodumene-albite zone, and a quartz-microcline-muscovite-albite zone. The zoning though is poorly defined. The Binneringie pegmatite group is similar, with the addition of beryl. In turn, the Woodline pegmatites are also similar but with the addition of schorl.Columbite-tantalite is found as fine grained, sub-centimetre black crystals disseminated in fine grained albite, or as fine to coarse grained crystals associated with cleavelandite in the quartz-spodumene-albite zone. White to grey spodumene crystals in albite occur up to 5cm thick, 10cm wide and 1 metre long, with some spodumene altered to a 'pinite' clay-mica pseudomorph. Infrequent vughs were encountered containing albite and quartz microcrystals, and un-named secondary minerals. |

The Bounty gold anomalies were discovered in 1985 by Aztec Exploration Limited after re-studying drill cores taken searching for nickel. The mine operated from 1988 to 2002, with Bounty, West Bounty and North Bounty pits which were developed over the strongest anomalies. The mine is 115 kilometres south south-east of Southern Cross. The mine closed when Aztec hit financial difficulties, when gold recovery rates were not to expectation.The mine is located in a southern extension of the Archaean Southern Cross Greenstone Belt. This belt is dominated by tholeiitic basalt, with lesser sandstone, siltstone and chert. Ultramafic rocks include komatiite altered to chlorite schist and serpentinized dunites. There are also some banded iron formations. A series of east striking lower Proterozoic gabbroic dykes cut the belt.At Bounty, gold is found in a narrow belt called the Bounty Horizon. This is composed of banded iron formation related Fe rich amphibolites, and some associated siliceous and pelitic rocks. Dolerite flanks the zone to the west, and high Mg basalt to the east.Weathering at Bounty reaches 40 metres. It consists of variable Fe rich clays, lateritic fragments, black Fe rich nodules, pale grey sandy clays, bleached saprolite and yellow-brown loose sands.Gold mineralization is found in a steeply dipping shear system, with near vertically west dipping banded iron formation and chert. There is a strong association between the gold and the underlying banded iron formation and chert. Gold occurs in zones of quartz-sulphide-carbonate alterations, at an average grade of 5 g/t over a 20 metre wide near surface zone.The sources here give far more information than will fit on Mindat. They focus on economic mineralisation, and a visit to the waste dumps at the mine by the writer would indicate there are more species than listed here.JORC confirmed resources for the Bounty Main mine is 3.3 Mt of ore at 3.69 g/t yielding 319 000 ounces of gold. The mine produced 1.3 million ounces of gold during its 12 year life.The Bounty Horizon is a sheared amphibolite iron formation and chert rich beds (50% each) 15 to 30 metres thick, dipping steeply west. The iron rich beds contain grunerite-ferroactinolite, magnetite-biotite, magnetite-grunerite-ferroactinolite or rarely magnetite-plagioclase. Thin iron rich pelitic interbeds are less common and contain biotite-almandine-hornblende-grunerite. The chert rich beds contain granoblastic quartz, and some magnetite, grunerite and ferroactinolite. Hedenbergite forms parallel bedding bands and cross cutting bands.Pyrrhotite dominates the Bounty Horizon, with up to 60% of rock in the strongly deformed zones. It forms disseminated replacement to magnetite rich bands, vein fillings, and as a matrix to breccia. In addition there is minor pyrite, marcasite, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite and sphalerite in the veins. Pyrite and marcasite are abundant in the upper oxidised levels but minor at depth.Spodumene and muscovite rich pegmatites intrude the Bounty Horizon. The regionally major Binneringie Dyke cuts the Bounty Deposit, and has oxidised pyrrhotite to magnetite within 100 metres of it.Gold is mainly found in the strongly deformed areas of the Bounty Horizon near the Hanging Wall, and in one area near the Footwall. Three types of veins occur in the former (1) quartz-calcite-hedenbergite-garnet (2) pyrrhotite rich veins and matrix breccia (3) quartz with visible gold. The quartz-gold veins are 3 to 20 cms thick and extend from 1 to 10 metres. The gold is found associated with quartz, calcite, and hedenbergite, with disseminated pyrrhotite, pentlandite, molybdenite and chalcopyrite. Veins containing quartz, actinolite, pyrrhotite, apatite, biotite and clinozoisite do not contain visible gold.The area of Footwall with gold shows quartz veins with visible gold, and associated with haloes of hedenbergite and pyrrhotite. Gold rich breccias contain mineral clasts of hedenbergite, calcite, plagioclase, quartz, actinolite, and blue-green hornblende, with minor biotite and apatite.Between the Hanging Wall and strongly deformed areas of the Bounty Horizon is a chlorite zone, showing as smooth shiny black rock. Some quartz is found in this as aggregates, rod shaped and steep plunging with minor pyrite, and pyrrhotite, (and graphite at the southern end of the deposit).The Hanging Wall is fine to coarse grained subhedral hornblende after pyroxene (40-60%), plagioclase, some actinolite and variable amounts of biotite. There is minor pyroxenitic and tremolite rich layers towards the lower contact with the Bounty Horizon.A zone of intense veining occurs within the Footwall rocks, adjacent to the Bounty Horizon, ranging from 1 to several metres with veins forming 50% of the rocks. The veins are quartz-pyrite-actinolite-pyrrhotite in variable proportions, strongly deformed or recrystallised and folded. Undeformed veins contain clinopyroxene with inclusions of calcite, euhedral epidote, and an outer rim of clinozoisite and some quartz. |

Located 2 km north of Ravensthorpe.Coordinates. 225185mE, 6282258mN.Also known as the Mt Cattlin Mine, or Cattlin Creek pegmatite. This was once a popular local fossicking site, but as of 2010 has been taken over by a lithium mine, and access is not permitted. Together with the Greenbushes mine (also in Western Australia) they account for a substantial proportion of the world's lithium supply.The pegmatite was first noted in 1900, and was the first time spodumene was discovered in Western Australia. Until the lithium mine opened, no active mining other than test pits had occurred at the deposit. It was not fully mapped until 1952 (Sofoulis 1958). Western Mining Corporation in 1962-65, Reynolds Australia Mines in 1981-82, Pan West Tantalum in 1989 and Greenstone Resources in 1997, all explored the site, but found the resource to be uneconomic. In 2000, Haddington International Resources in conjunction with Sons of Gwalia Ltd announced they planned to open a tantalum and Spodumine mine at the pegmatite, however further tests again showed their lease was uneconomic. Galaxy Resources had control of the neighbouring leases, and bought out Haddington, opening a lithium mine in 2010.Historic specimens are likely to have come from the test pits dug before this lithium mine opened. There were four quarries, all different in geology. The northern two quarries (arbitrarily named quarry 1 or white spodumene quarry; and quarry 2) show irregular masses of fine grained purple 'Lepidolite' mixed with albite, perthite, spodumene, quartz and muscovite. Fine grained 'Lepidolite'-cleavelandite-quartz masses contain pink, green and watermelon elbaite 2x7 cm in length, grey spodumene and finally montebrasite 1-2 cm in diameter.Quarry 3 (known as the green spodumene slot) contained spodumene, grey to blue anhedral apatite, schorl and muscovite. Quarry 4 (known as the green spodumene quarry) contained manganocolumbite, sphalerite and yellow to white beryl intergrown with quartz and albite. Cymatolite pseudomorphs after spodumene could once be found in Cattlin Creek downstream from quarry 4.To the west, across Cattlin Creek Road was once several small pits and a shaft, which is now part of the lithium mine. Here could be found albite-quartz-spodumene, with adjacent fine grained 'Lepidolite' masses, spodumene altered to white kaolinite, and needle like manganotantalite. |

"The mine is situated a few hundred metres straight up from the Woods Point Hall and is part of the Morning Star Mine complex. The entrance and access is barred by blackberries. Originally known as Scott & Cherry and later as No.1 & 2 North Gold Mining Co. The reefs worked were the Cherry, Hope and Drysdale. The total production until 1867 would have been close to 50,000 oz. of gold. The mine was probably abandoned before 1900, although one exploration drive seems to have been worked at a later date."Note. Co-ordinates are estimated only. |

Located 19 kilometres south-west of Ravensthorpe.This was once a fossicking site, however presently (2012) the lease is owned by Galaxy Resources, who operate the nearby Mt Cattlin Lithium Mine. The Mine Manager has advised me they are not allowing the public to fossick at the Cocanarup site. The entry has been included for anyone with historic specimens from the location before fossicking was banned.The pegmatites were discovered in 1900, at the same time as the Mt Cattlin pegmatite, however the Cocanarup field is significantly less mineralized. The field consists of pegmatites named Quarry, Horseshoe, Eastern and Crescent. Quarry is northern most, with Eastern approximately 500 metres east, Horseshoe 1 kilometre south of the Quarry pegmatite, and Crescent further south again of Horseshoe.No active mining took place on the field until 1960-63 when 13.3 tonnes of beryl was mined from the Quarry pegmatite. During 1980-1994, Amax Australia, Chevron, and Noranda Australia all explored the area, but found the deposit to be uneconomic. Amax Australia did however map the pegmatite field for the first time. They noted 'Lepidolite' at Horseshoe, zinnwaldite at Eastern, 'Lepidolite' and columbite at Quarry, and no lithium minerals at Crescent. Further exploratory work was done by UCABS PL from 1996-1999 and determined the deposit contained high grade potash feldspar used in glass making and ceramics, but could not find a market. In 2001 Galaxy Resources took over the leases.As the name suggests, the only pegmatite to see active mining, exposing the minerals below the surface is Quarry pegmatite. The pegmatite is approximately 1200 metres long and 15 to 40 metres in width. It dips 20 degrees to the west. The quarry itself at Quarry pegmatite shows albite variety cleavelandite, containing zinnwaldite, fine grained lilac coloured muscovite, a wall zone of quartz-plagioclase-muscovite with abundant schorl on its outer edges. Small quartz core segments are exposed at the northern side of the quarry.The Eastern pegmatite runs for 2000 metres north-south, and is 10 to 70 metres wide. The Horseshoe pegmatite is 700 metres 'tall' and 500 metres wide and as the name suggests is U shaped. It ranges in thickness 40 to 100 metres. Amax mapping indicates it contains abundant 'Lepidolite' and tourmaline. Crescent pegmatite is 700 metres wide and 1 kilometre long, quartz-microcline-muscovite with minor schorl.Deep blue, pink and green elbaite have been reported from the pegmatites, but remains largely unexplored from a specimen collecting viewpoint. |

Halls Creek Orogen, |
Located approximately 89 kilometres south-west of Halls Creek.Jacobson et.al. states this location is the historic pegmatite mining field, whereas the other localities under Mt Dockrell were named from exploration in more recent times. GPS co-ordinates are suggested as 315,002E and 7,907,614N, UTM52, GDA94 on former ML18 by MINEDEX, or (Hassan 2000) states it is at 314,765E and 7,907,479N, UTM52, GDA94.The pegmatites here were discovered in 1927 by Brens and Lidster. Alluvial cassiterite mining then occurred on ML 13,15,16, and 17 in the creek bed itself. Lithiophilite-triphylite large masses were observed from a weathered outcrop near here by Finucane (1938). Australian Anglo American Prospecting Pty Ltd searched unsuccessfully for economic amounts of niobium and tantalum across the Mount Dockrell area across 1980-1982. Around 1990, Roebuck Resources NL, conducted stream sediment sampling in the Columbium Creek area without success.Jacobson et.al. states the pegmatites in the Columbium Creek area are up to 150 metres long by 3 to 60 metres wide. |

The source states the lease was the first pegged in 1917, however the writer found information relating to the Bright Star location at Mount Francisco from 1906. Congo is located 1.61 kilometres north of the government well, although the well location is not known.Arrow shaped manganocolumbite crystals to several centimetres are reported from the lease, as well as shapeless masses to 2.2 kilograms, in albite and quartz. The lease was the first report of helvite in Western Australia. |

Located in Corundum creek 6 km West of Mt Painter.From Crooks and Abbot (2003). Corundum was discovered by WB Greenwood in 1906 in an unnamed creek, later named Corundum Creek, ‘4 miles west of Mount Painter and 2 miles east of Mount Pitts’ (Brown, 1908; Fig. 1). In 1909 Greenwood revisited the area on behalf of the Mount Painter Corundum and Gem Syndicate of Adelaide, and in the course of prospecting, discovered other corundum-bearing outcrops to the west and SE of Mount Painter. In 1910 a 1 t sample of corundum-bearing material was collected at the original discovery locality via a small adit, subsequently known as the Corundum Mine, for shipment to England for appraisal of its economic potential as a source of abrasives. The area was studied in detail by Ward (1913), who noted that the highest grade corundum deposit occurred at the Corundum Mine with lower grade deposits located on the NE side of Mount Painter and in the valley between Mount Painter and Mount Gee.The host rocks for the corundum are mica schists forming part of the Corundum Creek Member of Suite 4 of the Radium Creek Metamorphics, metasediments of probable Palaeoproterozoic age (Teale, 1993). The schists trend E–W with southerly dips ranging from 50° to vertical. The corundum was formed in response to high temperature (700°C), low pressure (3–5 kb) regional metamorphism (GS Teale in Giles and Johnson,1981) of aluminous, silica-deficient, mica schist derived from shale and mudstone. The beds have been intruded by numerous pegmatites of probable Ordovician age which tend to follow the grain of the country rocks (Coats and Blissett, 1971, Blissett, 1973). Dwyer (2000), however, cast doubt on the sedimentary origin corundum bearing schists. She described a corundum schist associated with amphibolite dyke rocks in the East Painter district and, based on detailed geochemistry, suggested a hydrothermally-altered, ultramafic origin for these and other corundum-bearing schists in the district.The corundum at the Corundum Mine occurs in segregated crystalline lumps, as roughly hexagonal crystals and as small irregularly-shaped pieces disseminated throughout the schist. It is usually blue, mottled white or green, and associated with small crystals of rutile, tourmaline, spinel and cordierite. In places the spinel is abundant and the corundum subordinate. Monazite and apatite have been recorded. Fragments of gem-quality corundum were noted including clear blue sapphire, ruby and oriental emerald.Brown (1908) stated that the corundum is present over a width of nearly 1 km at creek level and could be traced 50 m up the hill side. In places corundum forms 10–25% of the rock but Ward (1913) concluded that the total amount of schist bearing corundum was not large and doubted whether an appreciable bulk of material averaging 5% corundum could be produced. Difficulty with grade control, lack of water and transport problems contributed to the down-grading of the Corundum Mine’s potential as a commercial supply of abrasives (Ward, 1913).The deposits have been a source of supply for mineral collectors. In 1981 the Corundum Mine was placed on the register of geological monuments by the Geological Society of Australia, SA Division, because of its scientifically interesting mineral assemblage (Giles and Johnson, 1981). Apart from the main Corundum Creek locality, corundum has been identified, and in some cases mapped out, at many locations in the Mount Painter district (GM Teale, Teale and Associates Pty Ltd, pers. comm., 2002; SB Hore, PIRSA, pers. comm., 2002). It also displays a variety of parageneses apart from its formation in meta-pelites as discussed above, from accessory mineralisation in Delamerian pegmatites crosscutting Neoproterozoic sediments, to an association in altered Mesoproterozoic mafics (GM Teale, Teale and Associates Pty Ltd, pers. comm., 2002) as also identified by Dwyer (2000). |

70 kilometres north-west of Mount Magnet, and 24 kilometres north-east of the Dalgaranga homestead. It is south-west of the Dalgaranga Meteor Crater.Discovered by prospectors Dan and Don Todd in 1961, mining eluvial tantalite and beryl till 1964. After this a Mr Gray mined the area till he ran into financial difficulties. From 1961-1966 the pegmatite produced 8.89 tonnes of tantalum concentrates, 11.24 tonnes of beryl, and minor tin concentrates. Claumac Pty Ltd purchased the lease in 1966, then immediately tried to off-load it without success. Mining continued however till 1981. Claumac then surrendered the lease, and Goldrim Mining Australia Ltd took over. In 1988 K Seivwright owned the lease. Around 2000, Australasian Gold Mines NL purchased the lease. They constructed a pilot tantalite processing plant just north of the pit in 2001. Mining and the plant closed in 2003.The pegmatite is 137 metres long at the surface, 12 metres wide, strikes north-east, and dips 20-40 degress south-east. It consists of a 0.5 metre zinnwaldite wall zone, 1 metre intermediate zone of albite-zinnwaldite, and a 2-3 metre grey quartz core, with a repeat of the first two zones on the footwall. The host schist also contains zinnwaldite. In 1962 euclase was discovered for the first time in Western Australia from the pegmatite, although only from chemical analysis.Not to be confused with the Dalgaranga gold mine. |

Located 6 kilometres south south-west of Spargoville.The site consists of a shallow pit 1.6m deep, and up to 12m in diameter.It has produced green and blue gem quality elbaite tourmaline, shown chemically to contain 60-73% elbaite, 17-23% subordinate bluish-black tourmaline, 17-23% foitite, minor amounts of pink tourmaline, 0-14% olenite and 0-10% schorl. The tourmaline crystals vary in diameter from 1 to 55mm.The tourmaline are prismatic crystals with rounded faces, striated prismatically, with rare crystal terminations. Many specimens have a transparent core with a dark skin. Some specimens are bi-coloured green and blue when viewed perpendicular to the main axis, with the colours tending to merge gradually. Further, some are concentrically zoned shades of blue. Some have a 'pin-fire' appearance from an iridescent response caused by reflections from numerous internal cracks.At the time of writing (2013) it is believed the site was under an active lease by a Coolgardie specimen dealer. |

Located 60 kilometres south-east of Kambalda, and two kilometres west north-west of the Binneringie pegmatites (tantalite mine).It was first mined for tantalum minerals by Max and Stan Strindberg in 1986 to 1990. Low tantalum prices and litigation with another group claiming ownership saw mining stop in 1990. Mining again commenced in the early 2000's as part of the nearby Binneringie Mine by Australasian Gold Mines NL, and Tantalum Australia NL.The pegmatites are similar to those at nearby Bald Hill, being gently dipping to horizontal north-south trending sheets, 2 to 10 metres in thickness. The pegmatites show albite-quartz-microcline-muscovite, and albite-spodumene-muscovite. They are either poorly zoned or unzoned. Spodumene occurs as crystals up to 1 metre in length, with tantalite intergrowth in the albite-muscovite. Tantalite occurs as sub-centimetre crystals, with rare coarser crystals to 2cm. |

Located 11 kilometres south-east of Widgiemooltha.Eardleyite (otherwise known as Takovite) occurs here in serpentinite as narrow fracture filling, and thin surface coatings. It is associated with glaukosphaerite, nickeloan magnesite, nickeloan glauconite, atacamite, paratacamite, malachite, azurite, chalcopyrite and lithiophorite.Glaukosphaerite is intergrown with nickeloan celadonite in veinlets of goethite-quartz-tremolite rock.The prospect was discovered in 1967 by Anaconda and CRA.The ultramafic formation dips 45 degrees east, 300 metres thick, of picritic to peridotitic flow units, with increasing thickness with depth. It consists of talc, tremolite, chlorite rock, minor carbonate and serpentine. Thin phlogopite rich zones, and chlorite are abundant, with quartz-feldspar porphyry dykes. The footwall is amphibolite.There are two shoots, named A and B. A is larger at a length of 600 metres on the surface. It occupies an embayment at the ultramafic-footwall contact, plunging gently south, although the dip steepens with depth.The mineralised zone is up to 10 metres thick, but commonly 1-2 metres. Low grade disseminated ore of narrow veins, matrix to massive sulphide at or near the basal contact.B shoot is 60 metres long, at 200 metres above A shoot, 2-4 metres thick, with a grade lower than A.Primary mineralisation is pyrrhotite, pentlandite, minor chalcopyrite, gersdorffite, magnetite, chromite, and bismuthinite. |

Gem grade pink tourmaline has been extracted from this site, however the pegmatite is intensely weathered. It is located 124 kilometres south of Southern Cross, in a gold and nickel mining region called Forrestania. The mine is presently (2012) leased by Fred Rose, who sells specimens from the mine on Ebay.Kim Robinson accidently discovered the pegmatite while searching for nickel sometime between 1971 to 1976. Rubellite chips came up with the drill cuttings. He mined the site for tantalum in the early 1980's discovering the new species kimrobinsonite, which is an alteration mineral of stibiotantalite. During this time, about 200 kilograms of manganotantalite and microlite concentrates had been produced from approximately 3000 tonnes of ore. He also produced 1 400 carats of gem rubellite, and some of this was the finest gem-grade tourmaline produced in Western Australia. Mining ceased by the late 1980's and around 2000, the lease was purchased from Kim Robinson by Fred Rose, who has since conducted mining here for specimens.The pegmatite is within a north trending greenstone belt, and both the greenstone and pegmatite are covered by a red-brown laterite layer. The pegmatite is 1-4 metres thick, dipping gently to the north, with a pit 75-150 metres long, 30-50 metres wide, and 18 metre deep, together with a small shaft near the north-western rim of the pit.The pegmatite is severely weathered both physically and chemically, with much of the feldspars, albite and microcline, altered to clay. Further, fracturing and brecciation of unweathered core sections have altered some of the minerals left. What zoning can be seen show a hanging and footwall zone of medium grained albite-quartz with schorl, microcline-quartz intermediate zone, and quartz-cleavelandite-'Lepidolite' core.This central section has produced pink tourmaline, and rarely green tourmaline, clear quartz crystals and pink morganite. Fist-sized schorl crystals are said to be common at the west end of the pegmatite. Stibiotantalite and Kimrobinsonite are found in the underground workings. Kimrobinsonite is white, chalky, friable mineral to 5 mm, associated with black cesstibtantite (the first time the species was discovered in Western Australia).One truckload of Giles Pegmatite rock was dumped at Mt Holland during the 1980's by Kim Robinson with the intent of processing it, composed of curly albite with columbite and muscovite masses. This material is said to be still found around the dumps, and does not belong to Mt Holland. lat -32.17984 Long 119.7898 Co-ord 763041 mE, 6436217 mN |

2.5 km south of town. Columbite pit. Former MC 9 (and current P 15/4298) licence.This small columbite-beryl pegmatite has produced arguably the world's best ferrocolumbite crystals. The limited mining and small numbers of specimens produced has meant they are some of the more expensive specimens from Western Australia, when available at all.Although it is located only about 1 kilometre west of the main Kalgoorlie-Norseman Highway, the maze of unmarked tracks and thick scrub, means it is difficult to find. The track to the mine is 47 kilometres south of Coolgardie, then head along tracks in a north west direction.The deposit was discovered by prospector A. S. Giles in 1931, and he conducted limited columbite and beryl mining at the site. A number of lease holders mined 3 300 kilograms of columbite from here between 1952 to 1955. Later lease holders from 1966 to 1978 were more interested in exploring the surrounding area for nickel, and took little interest in the pegmatite. In 1984, Kargara Zinc Ltd began mining columbite at the site. The first specimen mining was undetaken by Frank Doedins in 1993, and older specimens may come with the name Two Dons Mine, which is the name they were marketed under at the time. After this brief period, the mine fell silent again, until 2003 when Benjamin Nicolson and Darren Allingham of Kalgoorlie again began mining for columbite specimens, which they sold at the 2004 Tuscon Show. They then filled the pit with rubble, and no mining has taken place since.The Giles pegmatite 330 metres long and up to 45 metres in width, dipping 30-50 degrees to the east. The zones are albite-quartz-muscovite, microcline-quartz, and quartz-spodumene-microcline. Outstanding rectangular shaped crystals have been found in the albite zone. White to light green beryl crystals have also come from the mine.Following some further mining for beryl for a short time in 2012, the pit has been largely covered over, and nearby shaft filled in. |

Also known as Moriarty's Claim. In 1938, local prospector A. S. Giles (who discovered the nearby world-class ferrocolumbite crystals at Giles pegmatite), took his wife out for a days prospecting. After parking the car in the scrub, he told his wife to wait for him (as you do) for his return at the end of the day. Later, and presumably bored with this, she stepped out of the car and straight onto a pile of gem green tourmaline. Mr Giles was in for a surprise when he returned.In 1963, the three Moriarty brothers from Kalgoorlie decided to try and rediscover the location, which they achieved after a two week search. They excavated the area from where the original surface material had come from between 1963 and 1966. They recovered green, pink and watermelon elbaite, considered some of the finest specimens ever discovered in Western Australia. Some are now housed in the Western Australian Museum.The site is a few kilometres south of Giles ferrocolumbite pegmatite. Unfortunately the area has seen extensive nickel exploration with tracks and exploration trenches everywhere. Even with good directions it took me five hours to find the location. The turn off is 6.9 kilometres south of the Nepean Road intersection, on the west side of the highway, marked with sheet metal fence posts. Travel 1.9 kilometres west, then 1.72 kilometres south along another track, and the site is 50 metres east of the track.The pegmatite is similar to assymetrical zoned pegmatites of southern California. It is 200 metres long and 1-2 metres thick. The wall zone on one side is aplite, whereas the other side is course grained microcline-albite-quartz. The centre area is a mixture of cleavelandite, quartz, elbaite and fine grained 'Lepidolite'. The pegmatite has been a popular spot for local rockhunting clubs, and almost nothing remains that could be collected. |

An open pit tin-tantalum-lithium mine located in SW Western Australia. Older specimens may be titled Lemonade Springs, which was an old open pit just south of the main Cornwall Pit.The mine has been one of the most intensely studied in Western Australia. The deposit contains half the world's known reserves of tantalum, and is the largest lithium resource in the world. Tin production ceased at Greenbushes in 2007. Fossicking is not allowed at the mine.The deposit was discovered by government geologist. E. T. Hardman in 1881. The Bunbury Tin Mining Company was formed to mine the alluvial cassiterite. Production levels waxed and waned over the years based on tin prices. In the early years mining involved screening, sluicing and dredging by small groups of miners. After 1908, lower profits and yields saw a gradual consolidation of leases. From this time till 1944, tin mining was sporadic, and conducted with hydraulic sluices with small scale deep mining. After the Second World War, the Tin and Strategic Mineral Company Pty Ltd started large scale mining using modern methods. Due to low prices the company ceased in 1956, and mining was taken over by Greenbushes Tin NL in 1965. Initially this was by dredges, then from 1972 by open pit mining for tin and tantalum. Commercial spodumene production for lithium started in 1983, but the company ran into financial difficulties and was purchased by Gwalia Consolidated Ltd in 1990, who expanded the mining operation.The mine is based in a zoned granitic pegmatite. The main Greenbushes pegmatite is 2,500 metres long and 61 to 244 metres wide, trending north north-west. It is classed as a large LCT complex pegmatite (spodumene sub-class), is severely deformed, recrystallised, deeply weathered and fine grained to a point where it is difficult to map out the zonation. Two main zones are present. - Albite / Ta-Sn zone - Spodumene zone (hanging walls of the main pegmatite)The mine produces many interesting minerals but few large attractive crystals for most species. Well formed, coarse schorl and holmquistite crystals are known, but only micro crystals of the tantalum-bearing minerals. It is the type and only locality for ferro-holmquistite. |

The Halfway pegmatite is about one kilometre south of the Millar's Workings location, and one kilometre north of the Ivy pegmatite. However Haddington Resources states the pegmatite is 420 metres south-west of Millars, but their map shows it as about 100 metres south of Millers. The original Mindat map location was retained, but caution should be exercised. |

The Horizontal pegmatite is in the vicinity of the Millar's Workings location, with Anster, Easy and Tommy's Show pegmatites also in the vicinity. Mindat map approximate.It is a one metre thick, flat dipping coarse grained pegmatite, displaced slightly by a north striking fault. While relatively significant tantalum has been found in the pegmatite, none of this has shed into alluvial material surrounding the pegmatite. |

im English was part of a small syndicate who mined alluvial material at the Ivy and Victoria leases in 1949, processing the ore at a plant erected it is assumed at the site. Mining soon ceased. According to maps, the mine was 500 metres west of the Stuart Highway, with the Jump-Up mine about 200 metres south, and Brannelly's mine 200 metres west. The location could not be confirmed, and the Mindat map is approximate.The Ivy pegmatite has intruded deeply weathered tabular amphibolite, with near surface gypsum and dolomite in the overlaying clayey soil. Wolfram and tin was mined in the early 1950's. Kewanee Australia Pty Ltd tested the pegmatite in 1972, but found nothing economic. |

Mount Keith Nickel Metallogenic Province,West Australian Element,Yilgarn Craton |
Part of the Kathleen Valley group of pegmatites centred around the abandoned gold and copper town of Kathleen. A fence and locked gate may prevent access. The location is a swarm of pegmatites.The pegmatites are spodumene rich, as bladed white crystals to 30 cms long by 2cm wide embedded in quartz and coarsely crystalline feldspar, with locally coarse muscovite. The spodumene fluoresces orange in long wave ultraviolet light. 'Lepidolite' is minor at the pegmatite. A small shaft has been sunk next to the pegmatites for copper but is genetically unrelated to the pegmatites. The copper ore was malachite and chrysocolla. |

The pegmatite field is approximately 89 kilometres south-west of Halls Creek. See Mount Dockrell for more information.Junda 3 is the northern most of the pegmatites noted by Jacobsen et.al.The pegmatites along Columbium Creek were discovered in 1927. Across 1980-1982 the Australian Anglo American Prospecting Pty Ltd searched for niobium and tantalum in the Mount Dockrell area. |

Part of the Kathleen Valley group of pegmatites centred around the abandoned gold and copper mining town of Kathleen. A fence and locked gate may prevent access.No historic information is known. The mine consists of a trench along the strike of a north trending lode and a vertical shaft. Small footprint. Chrysocolla, malachite and cuprite were the main ore minerals. It is one of a number of gold and copper mines in the area, and more recent nickel mines in the region. North of the mine inamongst creek boulders is the rubbly outcrop of a mafic pegmatite adjacent to a small spodumene pegmatite. The mafic pegmatite contains sharp striated clinozoisite and vesuvianite crystals to 20 mm, and blocky leek-green epidote crystals to 50 mm. |

Pegmatite located 6.7 km south of Pyramid Hill on Yinnietharra Station, Western Australia. It is the type locality of clinobisvanite. The pegmatite was worked for beryl. It intrudes a quartzite belonging to the lower Proterozoic Wyloogroup (Bridge & Pryce, 1974).Note 1. The Yinnietharra area is known for many pegmatites which were exploited for beryl during and after World War II. Note 2. This is not the famous dravite locality (which is not a pegmatite), see Soklich Open Pit Mine, Yinnietharra.This pegmatite has historically been called several names including the Arthur River South pegmatite (Trautman 1992), Tobin Well pegmatite (Johnston et al 1990), Marloo No2 pegmatite (Richards 1999), Marloo Well No2 pegmatite (Fetherston 2004). Mindat once listed the location incorrectly as 'Yinnietharra pegmatite'. Further various sources including above have given varying descriptions of its location. After an extensive study, the reference 'Pegmatites of Western Australia' concluded it was 6.7 kilometres south of Pyramid Hill. This included a discussion with Peter Bridge (2003) who was co-author of the existing reference below on clinobisvanite, and listed it as 5 kilometres south of the hill. 'Pegmatites of Western Australia' claim there is no pegmatite 5 kilometres south of Pyramid Hill. This source also provides a map stating its on Bidgemia Station (which is next door to Yinnietharra Station).Exploratory work and mapping was carried out at the site by AGIP Nucleare in 1974. The pegmatite was pegged by the three Kempton brothers, (Bob, Eric and Les) in 1979. They did limited mining of beryl and tantalum-niobium minerals. It was briefly (and unsuccessfully) explored for scheelite in 1982 before the site was abandoned.The pegmatite is 300 x 40 metres in size. It has a wall zone of coarse grained microcline-plagioclase-quartz-muscovite and a core of microcline. Trautman (1992) describes the pegmatite as irregular shaped albite variety cleavelandlite masses within the microcline and containing columbite-tantalite and garnet. Mark Calderwood described the pegmatite as massive spessartine, red plagioclase, muscovite and quartz.It is the type locality for clinobisvanite. The species was discovered by P. Bridge in 1972 after studying material from a collecting trip by the CSIRO to the area in 1971. Later in 1972, R.M. Clarke also discovered the species while studying material collected by Bridge from the Londonderry pegmatite near Coolgardie. A search through the CSIRO uncovered three further locations. Wodgina, Menzies(?), and the Champion Gold Mine near Westonia. In 1973, E.W. Bing found the species on a sample recently submitted from a location 1.3 kilometres north of Corinthia, north of Southern Cross. All locations are in Western Australia. Subsequently it was found that the species had been described beforehand from the Mutala pegmatite area, Mozambique, but had not been named, so the type locality went to the Kempton mine (it was subsequently known by this name several years later).At the location, clinobisvanite occurs as soft friable yellow coatings, orange globular aggregates, and rarely as small groups of reticulated plates up to 0.1mm across, intergrown with bismutite on spessartine garnet crystals.Coordinates as per WA Mines Department (GeoView).Also known as the Tobin Well pegmatite, Marloo 2 pegmatite, and the Arthur River South pegmatite.The literature has given a number of different locations for this remote site on the eastern fringes of Bidgemia Station, west of the main Yinnietharra mineral field. The reference concludes after studying all available sources, it is 6.7 kilometres due south of Pyramid Hill.It is the type locality for clinobisvanite. The species was discovered by P. Bridge from the CSIRO in 1972, after studying specimens the organisation collected from pegmatites in the Yinnietharra area in 1971. Later in 1972, R.M. Clarke discovered the species from the Londonderry pegmatite from material also collected by P. Bridge.A reassessment of the CSIRO collection uncovered a further three localities for the species; Wodgina, Menzies (?), and the Champion Gold Mine near Westonia. In 1973, E.W. Bing from the CSIRO found the species in a recently submitted sample 1.3 kms north-west of Corinthia, north of Southern Cross. All localities were in Western Australia. Subsequently a prior description was found for the Mutala pegmatite area, Mozambique, however the mineral was never named, so the type locality went to this Yinnietharra pegmatite.Clinobisvanite occurs at the Kempton mine as soft friable yellow coatings, orange globular aggregates, and rarely small groups of reticulated plates up to 0.1mm across, intergrown with bismutite on spessartine garnet crystals. Its is frequently associated with its polymorph pucherite.The mine is named after the three Kempton brothers; Bob, Eric and Les; who around 1979 pegged the location, and mined beryl and tantalum-niobium to a limited degree. In 1982 it was explored for scheelite by the brothers in conjunction with with a company called UGA, but the deposit was sub-economic.The pegmatite is 300 x 40 metres in size. It contains a wall zone of coarse grained microcline-plagioclase-quartz-muscovite, and a core of microcline. Massive spessartine, red plagioclase, muscovite, quartz, irregular shaped cleavelandite, columbite-tantalite is common at the site when inspected by one of the authors of the reference many years ago. Euxenite is claimed from the location as black, metamict, vitreous masses, with yellow ochrous blebs of possibly pyrochlore, but both species are yet to be confirmed from the location. |

Located about one kilometre north of the Londonderry lithium mine.Known for large masses of bright purple fine grained 'Lepidolite'. It is also the site of the first documented occurrence of pollucite in Western Australia.The site was first noted by LeMesurier in 1944, and named as 'Lepidolite' Hill shortly after by K.R. Miles. Western Mining Corporation explored the site in 1964, and mining started under tribute to this company in 1971 for petalite, beryl and 'Lepidolite', until mining ceased in 1973.The site contains a large abandoned pit, 150 metres long, 60 metres wide, and 15 metres deep. Some rehabilitation of the mullock piles has taken place.The original outcrop contained four pods of massive scaly purple 'Lepidolite' in contact with white quartz. Later work revealed a north-eastern pegmatite body, 213 metres long by 24 to 90 metres wide, dipping north-west. There is also a south-western pegmatite body, forming a south pointing, L shaped outcrop, dipping north-east and north-west.The pegmatites contain a albite-quartz-spessartine border zone, quartz-albite-microcline-muscovite wall zone, quartz-muscovite and petalite-quartz-microcline-'Lepidolite' intermediate zones, fine grained 'Lepidolite'-quartz core margin, and a quartz core.Petalite may be altered to albite-quartz and quartz-cookeite, similar to that described under the Londonderry Mindat locality nearby. Un-altered petalite is grey to pearly white masses, with single crystal fragments averaging 20 x 8 cm, with rare masses up to 60 x 60 x 90 cm. Pollucite is recorded as one specimen in the Western Australian Museum, as white glassy pollucite with grey micaceous veinlets. The reference states it is the only record of the species in Australia (2007), although Mindat lists the species for the Greenbushes Mine, also in Western Australia (2013). |

Government geologist, E.S. Simpson, discovered the first occurence of lithiophilite and sicklerite in Western Australia, from this pegmatite in 1927.The pegmatite is 625 metres north-west of the Wodgina Mine. The pegmatite is reached by taking a side track to the west from the Wodgina Mine access road. It ends at a cliff, and the pegmatite is about 100 metres south, marked by piles of weathered phosphate masses, and some overgrown potholes from historic mining.Around 1927 a prospector named Lewis recovered large masses of altered lithiophilite. Simpson states a tonne or more was mined from three bands in the outcrop of a quartz-microcline-albite pegmatite. A geologist investigating the site in 1944 stated it contained tiny lath-shaped manganotantalite crystals in albite, quartz and spessartine. The tantalite crystals in fine grained albite was confirmed by a geologist visit in 1994.The pegmatite strikes for 1.6 kms intruded into the Archaean Warrawoona Group Euro Basalt. At the northern end of the pegmatite several phosphate minerals are said to be exposed on the outcrop and rubble. The specimens originally collected by E.S. Simpson are in the Gartrell Collection in the Western Australian Museum. Ernest Nickel at the CSIRO studied the specimens identifying several additional phosphate species not recognised by Simpson. |

In 1978, Albert Millar discovered tantalite at this location, and several small parcels were processed at a plant he erected at the Salt Lake City Bore, 6 kilometres to the north, bordering the west side of the Stuart Highway. Millar was in partnership with Freeman (surname), who had conducted some prospecting on neighbouring pegmatites, but litigation between the partners soon ended mining. Production was from a shallow pit to a depth of 2 metres, revealing mineralisation in a quartz vein only 20 cms below the surface. One source states only 1 tonne of ore was mined in 1980, across 1000 square metres, to a depth of 1.2 metres. Muscovite books are noted by this source in the pegmatite.Explored by R.B. Mining Pty Ltd 1981, and Haddington Resources 2005-2006. The latter states the workings have been largely re-filled, and re-vegetated, with the pit fenced off. They further state the pegmatite could not be located due to the heavy ground disturbance in the area from prior mining/exploration.There are two areas of workings called Main and South. Main is a discontinuous faulted pegmatite, discordant with the regional trend. The pegmatite meanders generally east south-east, with a 20-30 degree dip south, averaging 1.5 metres thick, but 3.5 metres in the pit. The pegmatite has intruded schist, interbedded with deeply weathered amphibolite. The pegmatite contains sections of the country rock within it, and quartz blows. Numerous faults offset the pegmatite.The South workings are on a contorted pegmatite, 150 metres long, discordant trending east north-east, dipping 30-40 degrees south, with a thin layer of gravel covering it. Haddington states this is 200 metres south-west of the Main workings, as merely a scrape, with some low level ore heaps. The pegmatite sits in quartz and Bullion Schist.Later testing by the Northern Territory Mines Department found patchy mineralisation in the South workings, and very limited mineralisation in the Main workings.Neighbouring pegmatites to the north-west include Easy, Horizontal, and Anster. Halfway is about 500 metres to the south. Millars is about 2 kilometres west of the Stuart Highway. The minor shallow pit was located. See main Barrow Creek Pegmatite Field sub-heading for more geology information. |

Mount Cassiterite is an open cut pit and consists of pegmatites, one kilometre south of the Wodgina pegmatites. As a modern mine it is viewed as one deposit, however the two areas show different types of pegmatites.Mount Cassiterite covers an area of 1.1 x 0.8 kilometres, as a series pegmatite sheets, dykes, and irregular offset structures. It is hosted by metasedimentary fine grained psammite, and thick interbedded pelite, with minor quartzite and chert.There are two main sets of stacked pegmatite sheet, 5 to 12 metres thick, 2 to 100 metres long, dipping 20 to 25 degrees south-east, with a partial roll-over dip 15 to 20 degrees south-west. The sheets are interconnected by near vertical dykes, trending north-west to south-east, and north-east to south-west, by irregular keel like structures, and thin stringers of pegmatite, all emplaced at the same time. There is a third pegmatite structure lower down, but reaches a depth of up to 400 metres from the surface.The pegmatites are albite-spodumene type, with some K feldspar, and minor muscovite, as near homogenous bodies. The texture is massive to comb, with little zonation. Spodumene and perthitic microcline are dominant in a matrix of fine to medium grained quartz, albite, and muscovite. Spodumene crystals are aligned perpendicular to the pegmatite contacts, exhibiting 'pull-apart' structures. Zonation is limited to a finer grained border unit of microcline crystals.The main economic ore is wodginite and cassiterite, with sub-ordinate manganotantalite and manganocolumbite, and an altered assemblage of stanniferous microclite, with trace calciotantite. |

Located nine kilometres south of Norseman, and a couple of kilometres east of the highway. The field was mined for cassiterite between 1965-1967, producing 7.18 tonnes of concentrate. Between 1966 -1985 Norseman Gold Mines NL, and CRA Exploration Pty Ltd, explored the area but did not find cassiterite or tantalum in economic amounts. In 2001 Tantalum Australia Pty Ltd extensively drilled the pegmatite and stated the deposit contained 9.1 million tonnes of ore. They were investigating mining the deposit, however when the writer visited in 2011, no mining had taken place. It is common for exploration companies here in Western Australia to produce positive reports on mineral finds, that never have any likelihood of mining taking place. In 2003, Amit Eliyahu, completed his University of Western Australia thesis on the pegmatite.The area has a swarm of 71 recognised pegmatites covering 4.5 by 1.5 kilometres trending north north-west. Many of the pegmatites are 500-2000 metres in length and 0.3-7.5 metres thick, with a few 20 metres thick. The pegmatites have an upper portion quartz poor, cleavelandite rich marginal layer, which is where most of the cassiterite and tantalum is found.There are a large number of trenches, diggings and small open cut pits along the southern side of the access track covering about two kilometres. Two of the larger pits are called Dave's Open Cut (at the far end if travelling from Norseman), and Poldark's Open Cut, about half way along the diggings. Cassiterite, lepidolite and petalite specimens are reasonably common to find, while blue elbaite and pink beryl is more difficult. |

Pegmatite |
West Australian Element,Yilgarn Craton |
An abandoned mine 89 kilometres north-west of Mount Magnet. Contains the North-East Mount Farmer, Main Mount Farmer and South Mount Farmer pegmatites. Small-scale near-surface mining took place during the 1960's on the Main and South pegmatites. This was abandoned in the late 70's. The pegmatites were systematically explored from 1984-1986, trial mining in 1987. Pancontinental Mining Ltd, Cove Mining NL and Richard Read and Associates Pty Ltd formed a joint venture to mine the deposit. Pancontinental dropped out in 1992. In 1995, mining eventually started with the remaining two companies, and Resource Management GP. The quartz hill overlying the pegmatite was removed to gain access to the microlite ore, resulting in a 60 metre diameter by 20 metre deep pit, known as the Main Mount Farmer Pit. Mining ceased in 1999.The Main Mount Farmer pegmatite is at least 400 metres long, up to 25-35 metres wide, strikes north-east to south-west and dips 30-40 degrees north-west.Extensive information is known about the pegmatite from D.P. Broomfield's university thesis before mining started. The pegmatite is zoned in layers from the footwall to the hangingwall with.1. layered aplitic fine grained microcline-quartz-plagioclase pegmatite with muscovite, schorl, almandine and small light green beryl crystals. 2. footwall zone of quartz-microcline-plagioclase pegmatite with muscovite, almandine, schorl and biotite. 3. thin discontinuous zinnwaldite-quartz-albite zone as isolated lens within the wall zone with small green beryl crystals, rare amazonite, faded red spessartine, possibly dark grey-green porcellaneous masses of altered spodumene and euhedral white to bluish topaz with a thick fibrous surficial layer of hydromica being possibly a variety of damourite.(described as spectacular looking by the reference). The zinnwaldite forms curved plates in clusters 3-7cms in diameter. 4. albite-quartz core-margin unit found only on the footwall side of the quartz core, with apatite, bismuth, possibly bismite and bismutite, red and green elbaite, white, grey and rust-stained fluorite, 'Lepidolite', manganotantalite, manganocolumbite, honey-yellow coloured microlite containing plumbomicrolite, green muscovite, possibly the altered spodumene noted above, and altered and unaltered topaz. 5. quartz core of white opaque quartz with clear, white to brown fluorite, and pyrite. 6. thin discontinuous albite-quartz core-margin unit, with fine grained 'Lepidolite', topaz, silver and green muscovite. 7. hangingwall zone of quartz-microcline-plagioclase pegmatite with thin lenses of zinnwaldite-quartz-albite pegmatite within the wall zone. 8. thin fine grained contact zone of quartz-microcline-plagioclase-muscovite.As commonly noted on Mindat for Western Australia, it is a tragedy specimens were not available for collections before it was mined out.The reference also described the South pegmatite (but not the North-East). Located 1.25 kilometres south south-west of the Main pit. The pegmatite is at least 200 metres long, 2 metres wide, strikes east south-east and dips 60 degrees north. Most of the pegmatite is said to have been mined out, and the pit partially collapsed. The pegmatite is well zoned but thin, of a blocky grey quartz core, surrounded by a discontinuous thin zone of cleavelandite and quartz containing minor amounts of rubellite, fine grained silver-green muscovite, and 'Lepidolite'. Next is an intermediate zone of quartz and microcline, containing large 'books' of muscovite, and roughly crystallised green and white beryl crystals. The wall zone consists of a much finer grained layered aplitic unit of albite, quartz, and mica, with a 2 cm wide band of almandine. |

Simple columbite-beryl pegmatites. 9.6 kilometres south-east of Roebourne. Suggested GPS co-ordinates are 520,650E 7,698,100N UTM50 AGD84. An aboriginal group mined 106 tonnes of beryl, 8.6 tonnes of tantalite-columbite concentrate, and 1.1 tonnes of cassiterite concentrate here in 1961.The field contains eleven pegmatites, the largest 20 metres long, 4 metres wide, with a steep to vertical dip. The pegmatites are found in Archaean metamorphosed ultramafic rocks and gabbro within the Roebourne syncline. They show crude zoning with quartz cores surrounded by layers of quartz, cleavelandite and muscovite. Beryl is found as grey, white and pale green crystals. Some may reach emerald quality.There are rumours of several gemstones species found in this area, but almost never seen. Despite being near to Roebourne, entry into the area should not be taken lightly (in fact it is not recommended). It is a jumble of hills with loose scree slopes, and spikey spinifex. No roads enter the area and walking is the only option. No water is available, hot summer temperatures and little to guide walkers from getting lost. |

Located approximately 89 kilometres south-west of Halls Creek.Jaconson et.al. states Taylor's Lookout is located at 314,862E and 7,906,112N, UTM52, GDA94. Unlike some of the other localities on the Mount Dockrell field, both MINEDEX and Hassan(2000) agree with this. However, Hassan states only alluvial cassiterite and tantalum can be found, while Fetherston (2004) states it is a pegmatite containing beryl and spodumene.The pegmatites at Columbium Creek were discovered in 1927. Across 1980-1982, the Australian Anglo American Prospecting Pty Ltd searched unsuccessfully for economic grades of niobium and tantalum across the Mount Dockrell area. There was an exploration for tungsten in creek beds around the Taylor's Lookout area from 1980-1986 by Union Oil Development.Fetherston (2004) states the Taylor's Lookout prospect has spodumene, beryl, cassiterite and columbite. |

Spodumene pegmatites (LCT-type), hosted by amphibolites. Located about 50 km south of Kalgoorlie.The Mount Marion pegmatites are about 30 kilometres south-east of Coolgardie between the Coolgardie-Esperance Highway and the Kalgoorlie-Kambalda Road. Access to the pegmatites at present (2013) is virtually impossible due to active gold mining in the immediate area.They are the first recognised unzoned albite-spodumene pegmatites in Western Australia. They consist of a series of pegmatites running north-west to south-east for about 3 kilometres. The southern most is called No 4 pegmatite on MC60, then MC 15/4476 lease, MC 27, MC 24 called the No1 and No2 pegmatites, MC 26, MC 25 which contains No 2 West Pegmatite, and No 3 pegmatite about 500 metres further north-west and is the northern limit of the pegmatite field.The pegmatite was first discovered while conducting a regional mapping exercise in 1913 by C.S. Honman. Hampton Plains Mining syndicate employing two men was mining the pegmatite in 1956, by blasting several cross-cut trenches. The largest at this time was 6 metres long, 2 metres wide, and 1.5 metres deep. The pegmatites were mapped in detail by J. Lalor for Western Mining Corporation in 1960. Between 1960 to 1964 the same company explored the area, and conducted further drilling between 1971 to 1986. No mining took place and the leases were surrendered.Pegmatite No 1 forms a flat sheet averaging 17-21 metres thick, dipping 15 degrees to the west, and has eroded into two masses a total length of 335 metres. The pegmatite has a homogeneous granitic texture of quartz, microcline, albite and muscovite, with some pale green to white spodumene crystals up to 30 cm in length. A thin band of cleavelandite occurs near the hanging wall and footwall, with holmquistite along the hanging wall contact.Pegmatite No 2, similar to No 1, is 330 metres long and dips 30 degrees to the west. Pegmatite No 2 West forms a V-shaped outcrop in a north-south direction and is 30 metres wide.Pegamtite No 3 is a flat lying sheet, 4 to 14 metres thick, with a strike length of 640 metres. It contains spodumene crystals up to 1 metre in length. The pegmatite has a core of quartz-spodumene-albite-muscovite containing 30-50% spodumene. The next zone is microcline-quartz-plagioclase-muscovite wall zone. Small sub-centimetre columbite-tantalite crystals are found with the albite in the core.Pegmatite No 4 is similar to No1. It outcrops as a narrow curved vein north-south, 6-8 metres thick, dipping 10-25 degrees to the west, unzoned and contains spodumene. |

Carbonatitic REE deposit with additional Nb, Ta, Zr, Ti contents ('Crown deposit' - apparently a separate part of the carbonatite). Discovered in 1988; owned by Lynas Corp.Located about 30 km south of Laverton and 120 km east of Leonora.Rare earths are contained in secondary phosphates and aluminophosphates, presumably derived from weathering of the Proterozoic Mount Weld carbonatite, an intrusive pipe approximately three kilometers in diameter.One of the references describes churchite as a fragile secondary mineral of microcrystalline acicular radiating crystals. It is found as void filling in crandallite group minerals, and as encrustations on limonite aggregates, weathered magnetite, on crandallite group grains, and sometimes as fine grained intergrowths with limoniteCarbonatite Complex is roughly circular in plan, 4km in diameter and intrudes Archean greenstone sequence consisting essentially of basic and ultrabasic volcanic rocks and metasediments (Duncan & Willett 1990; Middlemost 1990). Carbonatite dikes have been intersected in drilling up to 5 km from the complex, but there is no associated alkaline silicate rock.Rare earth element (REE) deposit, is one of the largest of its type on Earth. Current mining exploits the high-grade weathered goethite-bearing resource that lies above, and which represents the weathering product of a subjacent carbonatite. |

Located to the north of Morrissey Hill, between the hill and April pegmatite and possesses the same simple mineralogy as Morrissey Hill. They are sub-parrallel pegmatite veins here up to 1 metre in width, trending mainly east-west intruding into tourmalinised gneisses. It is composed of coarse grained microcline-quartz and accessory muscovite with grain size decreasing towards the gneiss contact. About 40% of the pegmatites are irregular shaped cleavelandite masses containing almandine, columbite-tantalite and apatite. Microlite is present only as microscopic alteration of columbite-tantalite. |

Situated south of Mt Riddock.The Mount Riddock Station owner has closed this public fossicking location (2017). Reports are trenches have been dug across tracks to prevent access. This was apparently the result of people needing to be rescued, trail bikes tearing up countryside, and station equipment damaged. The following article is for arm chair fossickers only.Remote and difficult to locate. Northern Territory Mines and Energy maps online show the route as a track south from the Plenty Highway, about a third of the way between the Ongeva Creek crossing and new Mount Riddock homestead. This travels 10.7 kms to a garnet location, and at this junction head on a track south-west to the Cattlewater Pass track. An easier route would be to travel down the Cattewater Pass track which leaves the Plenty Highway just east of the Ongeva Creek crossing. This will arrive at the same location as above. This is after the Blackfellow's Mine Mindat location is passed, after which the track turns sharply east around the base of some ranges. The Ongeva Creek is to the south. Several tracks leave this intersection, the Cattlewater Pass Track to the south-east. Instead head on a fairly straight track east 6.7 kms, parallel with a fence line. It crosses a creek and shortly after arrives at the Ramberanna Dam, in what appears to be a fairly flat barren area between the hills. From this point are several gemstone fossicking sites for the adventurous.According to the map, the disused Old Station Well is several hundred metres north, along the prior mentioned creek, and former old Riddock Station homestead site just south of this. It should be noted that the old homestead was dismantled and relocated to the Gemtree Roadhouse in 2014. Satellite images show nothing of the well or former homestead site, and an on the ground inspection is needed.Elbaite (verdelite). Acicular crystals in milky and clear quartz. The surface dumps had been picked over when reported in 1986, although decent specimens can be found by digging. Also found on the dump is elongated schorl crystals, and quartz rocks. The schorl is also found as inclusions in muscovite. There are also good specimens of mica books, some spotted green. Also obtained is clear and milky quartz, and feldspar. (N.T. Government website) This site is described as along a faint track 500 metres north of the dam, then a faint track one kilometre east to the Old Riddock Homestead Mica Mine. The creek and/or river bank also contains mica and epidote. The older 1986 (Thompson, A Fossicking Guide to the Northern Territory) states a walk is needed 200 metres upstream from the old Riddock homestead site, over a low ridge to the head of a valley. The verdelite it states is an excavation of the creek on the other side of the ridge. Satellite images show a faint track heading north along an ephemeral creek 'flowing' into the dam for 500 metres leading directly to the mine, which seems to be the easiest instructions now.Aquamarine. Head on a track for 2 kilometres south-east from the dam, then a faint track 500 metres north-east to a very prominent quartz outcrop. However Thompson states take a track south of the dam, but it appears it should be correctly south-east. Walking cross country is then needed, the outcrop containing good schorl crystals, clear and smoky quartz. Aquamarine can be found 500 metres east north-east, around an old single mica pit at the foot of a slope. Aquamarine occurs here as chips, and needs digging/sieving. Its source is unclear, and they suggest the material may have been dumped at the site from elsewhere. Also moonstone and some schorl in the area.Schorl can be found via a cross country walk, 2 kilometres from the above location at the north-east head of a valley. Schorl occurs in a long pegmatite dyke 0.5 kilometres north-east of the valley head, north of a prominent peak. The pegmatite forms a north trending ridge in low hilly country. Found are radiating schorl needles, quartz and feldspar in outcrops and large boulders at the southern end of the pegmatite. Mica books are found at a mica digging on the western side of the ridge.Please be aware this area is remote, the dam is dry as are the creeks most of the time, and Old Station Well is derelict. Care should be taken, and be prepared for emergencies as there is no help nearby. Mindat map shows location of Ramberanna Dam.At the time of writing (2017), the owners of Mount Riddock station are negotiating with the Northern Territory government to close the area off to fossickers due to damage caused. The station owner has taken matters into his own hands, and blocked access tracks. Online chat sites state recent requests to visit areas on the station have been met with a NO. The neighbouring station owner to the south in the Harts Range, threatens fossickers with legal action. |

Komatiite-related copper-nickel sulfide deposit. One of the largest nickel deposits in the world, with reserves of 45 million tons of ore grading at 2.05% nickel.Located a few kilometres north of Leinster, the town established in 1976 by Agnew Gold Mining for its nickel operations. The mine was later taken over by Western Mining Company, then BHP Billiton which operated it under the name Nickelwest. The mine is named after a nearby well. It is also sometimes referred to as the Leinster or Agnew Mine.It was an open pit with an underground mine to 1400 metres below the surface and was one of the deepest in Australia. The mine came under scrutiny for a poor safety record (by Australian standards), much of this caused by significant seismic events.The mine was closed by BHP in late 2013.The mine is situated in the greenstone belt of felsic volcaniclastic sediments and lavas, with intermittent komatiite and black sulphidic graphitic shales. All the mineralisation is in the komatiite. This occupies an overturned eastern limb of a regional anticline. The Komatiite banding is thick layers of olivine ortho-mesa cumulate, capped by a succession of thin spinifex textured flows. The core of the komatiite is called the Perseverence ultramafic complex, which is a thick intact accumulation of olivine-rich ultramafic rocks in which the primary igneous cumulate textures are preserved.The ore-body is at the base of this complex and is composed of high grade and heavily disseminated sulphides, with an extension sheet of weak sulphide mineralisation. The massive sulphide displays strong tectonite fabrics and is located in a structurally complex position, within the weakly mineralised zone. It occurs as a series of steep dipping, north striking, individual, fault-bounded sheets resulting from physical remobilisation of the fault-related lodes and fold hinges. The main mineralisation is a series of vertically stacked lenses. The surrounding weak sulphide envelope shows disseminated sulphide forming a distinct shoot, plunging 70 degrees south at more than 1100 metres below the surface, and striking north, dipping steeply to the west.The heavy disseminated ores in the central zone contain Ni of over 1.5% and 20% of the volume of the ore with pyrrhotite and pentlandite dominant. The marginal zone flanking this central zone also has these species as dominant. The weakly disseminated sulphide sheet has Ni at 0.5 to 0.7% and 5% of volume as lobate aggregates of pyrrhotite and pentlandite.World-class millerite specimens and takovite/eardleyite have come from the mine and a few other species of average importance. Okenite has also been found which is rare in Australia. |

The Pilgangoora pegmatites are in a belt 1.5 kilometre wide by 8 kilometres long trending north-south. The pegmatites have intruded into north-south trending faults within the Archaean metamorphic (lava, cherts and pyroclastics) rocks of the Warrawoona Group. The pegmatites are long narrow veins of spodumene and lepodolite with cleavelandite units showing either quartz-spodumene-albite-microcline; quartz-microcline-albite-muscovite; or quartz-muscovite-microcline-cassiterite-plagioclase. The first is the source of tantalum ore containing manganotantalite, columbite, tapiolite and microlite. Beryl and spessartine garnet is seen occasionally. |

The Red Lead Mine is in the Dundas district, located about 10km to the north east of Zeehan on Tasmania's west coast. It is an old silver lead mine, but presently worked for crocoite specimens and is one of the main crocoite producing mines in the world. Originally worked as an old underground lead mine, it has been open cut in recent years but presently operations have shifted underground with the reopening of some old adits.The Red Lead Mine is located on the southern edge of the Dundas mining district. The ore body is hosted in deeply weathered, dolomite- altered Cambrian ultramafic rocks, likely to be the same mineralised alteration zone as in the adjoining Adelaide Mine. |

The main group of deposits cover an area 6 kilometres by 5 kilometres, north of the Ripon Hills Road, between the Nullagine River and Yilgalong Creek crossings.Longeach Oil Ltd formed a subsidiary called the Longreach Manganese Pty Ltd (in another source Longreach Metals NL, and in another Australian Longreach Metals Company).The deposits were known from the 1950's, but extensively explored by Longreach Metals NL from 1968 to 1972. The company appeared on the verge of commercial production with a purchase agreement with Nippon Steel. The tenements, plant and equipment had been purchased from the Mount Sydney Manganese Pty Ltd at Woodie Woodie. However, it appears to have come to nought. In 2009, the deposits were explored by Jupiter Minerals.Ripon Hills is a dissected fault plateau, formed by the uplift blocks of gently dipping Proterozoic shales, Pinjian cherts and Carawine dolomite. The shale is Mn and Fe enriched, with overlying chert breccia.The ore deposits are Fe and Mn erratic supergene replacement of shale, and leaching of other minerals. The ore is fine grained pyrolusite, intergrown with fine grained hematite, with locally extensively altered bixbyite and braunite, cryptomelane, lithiophorite aggregates, hosted by kaolin.At a cut-off rate of 20% Mn, the resource of 12 Mt, grading at 24.6% Mn, and 23% Fe. Much of the remaining deposit is low grade. In 1972, the proven resource was 20 Mt, with Indicated and Inferred resource of 50 Mt. It was also stated there was a small iron ore deposit of 10 Mt of 64-68% Fe.It has been formed by the laterite weathering of Proterozoic ferruginous-manganiferous shales, forming supergene Fe-Mn ores in the upper 11 metres from the surface, caused by irregular substitution of the parent rocks by Fe and Mn oxyhydroxides during leaching and intensive removal of other components.The old derelict processing plant remains, surrounded by overgrown piles of manganese, with various very small isolated manganese pits in the surrounding area. The site is not easily accessed, the track from the north off Warrwagine Road, rather than Rippon Hills Road. It goes for miles in a southerly direction along creeks, and through hills, and is likely in a poor state. The track continues west of the old processing plant onto the flats and for several kilometres to an unusual large, and equally little visited sinkhole. |

"The main adit is to be found on a tributary of Cannon's Creek a few hundred metres north of Gaffney's Creek. No precise information concerning the discovery of this mine was found, although reports of work date as far back as 1864. Estimates of total gold production reach 50,000 oz. The main adit was found at the end of the ore dump but unfortunately has caved-in close to the entrance." |

Located 77 kilometres east of Perenjori, and 3 kilometres west south-west of the Rothsay mine and ghost-town site. Access over the last kilometre requires a 4 wheel drive, but could be walked. It is part of a tourist drive from Perenjori. Dark green apatite can still be seen in the walls, but as its been a popular and relatively easily accessed site, examples of beryl are unlikely to still be found without much work. The mine is also popular with the local feral goat population, and the odour from their droppings makes a visit to the abandoned mine a less than pleasant experience.The site contains three beryl bearing pegmatites, discovered in 1969 by E Taylor of Paynes Find while exploring for nickel. They were mapped and studied by Blockley and Gibson in 1973. 296.69 tonnes of beryl was extracted from the site, mainly from the Eastern pegmatite at 270 tonnes.The three pegmatites generally have a 45 cm thick border zone of fine grained albite, with some mica and quartz, and rarely beryl; a 1.5 to 2.5 wall zone of albite-quartz-muscovite with beryl; a 2 to 5 metre coarse grained albite zone with muscovite, minor quartz and beryl; and a 10 to 15 metre thick quartz core of greasy blue-grey to black quartz with little or no beryl but minor clear opal.The Eastern pegmatite is 230 metres long, 25 metres wide. A 60 metre long pit exists, 10 metres wide and 8.5 metres deep. The pegmatite contains Western Australia's largest mass of apatite. It is found in smokey quartz and microcline. The apatite ranges from light to dark green as glassy crystal masses. The pegmatite has a quartz core, with fractured controlled masses of albite and elongated muscovite blades. The albite sometimes contains dull greenish beryl crystals.The Central pegmatite is tadpole shaped, 60 metres wide at its fat end, and 70 metres long. It has two small pits 5 metres deep by 25 metres wide. It is unknown if beryl has been found here.The Western pegmatite is 100 metres long by 30 metres wide, with a couple of 1 to 2 metres pits which have not penetrated the pegmatite. Beryl has been reported on the surface here in the past.Beryl has been found in the past at the site, with crystals up to 1 metre in length, blue-green, pale-green and amber. Groups of columbite crystals in albite have been found in the Eastern pegmatite, the largest 5 x 2cm. Apatite from this pegmatite can be light grey glassy parallel cleavage masses without a greasy luster; light grey slightly greasy luster masses with black-green glassy areas; and dark black-green glassy masses with a strong greasy luster. |

Creek gully worked for alluvial gold. Discovered in 1872 and alluvium was worked from 6ft to 14ft. Most of the gold was fine, though a 4 ounce nugget was found. The Inspector of Mines reported asbestos in 1892 occurring in small veins dipping east. This was presumably chrysotile though not certain as tremolite also occurs in the area and could have been asbestiform. Felted asbestos (mountain cork) was found on the surface. The SA Museum also has specimens of bismutite and elbaite tourmaline labeled Sailors Gully. |

Located 60 kilometres south-east of Kambalda, and about 5 kilometres north-west of the Binneringie pegmatites (tantalum mine).Limited mining occurred here by Max and Stan Strindberg from 1999-2002.The pegmatites are poorly exposed beneath alluvium.The alluvium contains rounded columbite-tantalite crystal fragments to 1cm in diameter, and rounded gem quality citrine quartz. The latter show 10-15cm in length smokey, citrine and clear quartz masses as single crystals. Blue and dark green elbaite is also reported. |

Underground mine.The Scuddles mine is 4 kilometres north west of the Gossan Hill mine.The mineralised horizon is 80 metres thick. The upper part of this is a laminated magnetite bearing iron formation, enriched with Fe, Mn, and base metals, overlying several Fe-Zn lenses of massive sulphides grading downwards into pyritic sulphide. The massive sulphides in places show Pb, Ag, Au and Cu.Under this is a zone of epigenetic stockwork, stringers and disseminated Cu-Fe. Massive and disseminated sulphides may be accompanied by quartz, chlorite, talc and other silicates, carbonates and magnetite.The ore deposit is 600 metres long and up to 50 metres thick. It occurs as two steeply west dipping lenses of massive sulphide. These show as massive sphalerite at the top, then massive pyrite with sphalerite and minor chalcopyrite and finally Cu rich massive sulphides.The footwall contains an area of massive sulphide as pyrite-chalcopyrite stockwork with silicification and chlorite alteration. Around the deposit is a halo of sericite, quartz, chlorite and carbonates. |

The Sinclair Caesium Deposit is a recent discovery (September 2016) of a significant body of pollucite within a LCT pegmatite, a mineral previously known only in small quantities from two other localities in Australia. The deposit is owned by Pioneer Resources Limited, and is located approximately 40km north of Norseman on the western side of the Norseman-Widgiemooltha sealed road.The deposit occurs within a large differentiated pegmatite which forms part of a pegmatite swarm adjacent to the Pioneer Dome. The pollucite occurs as an almost monomineralic core zone within the core of the pegmatite, mantled by a larger 'Lepidolite' zone. A quartz and or lithium silicate zone occurs either within or adjacent to the pollucite zone. The pollucite zone occurs at a vertical depth of approximately 40 metres below surface, and drill hole intersections of 12 metres of pollucite-rich material were obtained in a drilling programme completed in January 2017. The drill hole data was modelled to yield a total in-situ Measured resource of 10,500 tonnes at 17.1% Cs2O. Specimens of pollucite in drill core have been donated to the W.A. Museum by Pioneer Resources. |

64 kilometres south-east of Port Hedland. The track to the pegmatite is twelve kilometres south from the Great Northern Highway along the Marble Bar Road, and is on your right as you travel south. The track travels south-west for 6.5 kilometres, and the pegmatite can be seen as a low ridge to the south side of the track. A four wheel drive vehicle is essential.Mining started for alluvial cassiterite here in 1916, recovering thirty-five tonnes in that year. The pegmatite was mined again from 1928 to 1938 for cassiterite and tantalite, organised by Lady Deborah Hackett-Moulden of Adelaide, who was also involved with the Wodgina mine further west. Mining continued in 1943 by the Commonwealth Government as part of its war-time effort. Five tonnes of beryl was also collected the following year. All mining had been to this point alluvial material.After the Second World War, the location was returned to Lady Hackett-Moulden but a lack of funds saw it sold to Northwest Tantalum Ltd, but they also abandoned ownership of it in 1955, viewing the deposit as uneconomic.J.A. Johnson and Sons Pty Ltd purchased the pegmatite in 1967, then sold it soon after to Avela Pty Ltd, who in turn leased it to Goldrim Mining in 1968. By 2000, Sons of Gwalia had gained control of the site.The pegmatite is largely intact with two small badly collapsed pits, and the concrete foundations of a water tank, the only mining evidence. A D9 bulldozer has ripped the surface of the pegmatite, but this only makes it easier to fossick.The pegmatite is 700 metres long,25 to 200 metres wide and 150 metres thick, trending north-east to south-west, dipping almost vertically.The zones are several quartz core segments, microcline-quartz zone, albite-quartz-microcline zone, muscovite greisen unit, and an albite-muscovite greisen unit.Arrow shaped sub-centimetre sized tantalite and cassiterite crystals are found in the irregular fine grained albite-muscovite masses. The larger masses of tantalite have been pseudomorphed by microlite. Large grey and white beryl masses are found in the quartz-microcline masses, but the writer did not observe any crystals. Spessartine is also associated with the greisen.The lithium phosphate masses at the pegmatite are unclear. It has been suggested by the reference as 'altered phosphate nodules with rims of sicklerite and purpurite around a core of tan lithiophilite'. Hureaulite,dufrenite, or apatite has been suggested as the white veinlets through the sicklerite. Purple 'Lepidolite' has been reported from the pegmatite but tests concluded little lithium, and is viewed as a lithian muscovite.The Strelley Pegmatite is located between two mining projects held (in 2016) by Lithium Poer International Ltd, being the Strelley Project to the North and the Tabba Tabba Project to the South.Strelley Station comprises a group of pastoral leases - primarily cattle. |

The Tantalite Hill pegmatite is 2 kilometres west north-west of the Londonderry quarry, and can be accessed via a track from the Coolgardie-Nepean Road.Hugh Fraser discovered manganotantalite here in 1909. A pit only 3 metres deep was developed, and there was no further activity till 1928, when H. Hewitt mined tantalite at the location. Serious excavations started in 1938 by Londonderry Minerals NL, who were taken over a year later by British Tantalite Ltd, extending the pit to 9 metres long, 3 metres wide and four metres deep. Mining was abandoned in 1940. Western Mining explored the site for petalite in 1965. Commercial Minerals Ltd controlled the lease from 1984 to 1998. Further exploration work was done in 1990 by Copper Mines and Metals Ltd, confirming earlier reports of the high grade tantalite averaging 70% Ta2O5.It is a zoned pegmatite, with a border zone of albite-quartz-garnet, a quartz core, and discontinuous intermediate zones of quartz-albite-microcline, albite-quartz-zinnwaldite, albite-quartz-'Lepidolite', and quartz-microcline-petalite.The last zone shows small masses of grey to white petalite, with possibly very small (1-2cm) clear gemmy fragments. Petalite alters to pseudomorphs similar to that described at the Londonderry deposit nearby. |

According to maps, Tommy's Show pegmatite is in the vicinity of the Millar's Workings location, with the Anster, Horizontal and Easy pegmatites nearby. Mindat map approximate.The pegmatite is coarse grained, trending west north-west for 110 metres, averaging 2.5 metres wide, dipping 45 degrees south. The pegmatite penetrates schist, with deeply weathered clayey soil in the Footwall. The source states the pegmatite contains quartz 'bungs' (?), and country rock schist sections. There is a second pegmatite 35 metres to the north, as a faulted eastern section of the main pegmatite. |

A former underground mine.Located in Byjerkerno Parish approxiimately l.5 kms south-southwest of the "Byjerkerno" homestead, south of Caloola Creek.A cassiterite, amblygonite and beryl bearing pegmatite, worked from 1887 through to probably the 80's-90's. Tin mineralisation historically was low grade and patchy. Some beryl and amblygonite has been won, however beryllium and lithium grades were quite low. Notably, the beryl from this mine is a caesium-bearing variety, vorobyevite. |

The pegmatites are near the entrance track to the Curlew Emerald Mine, on the Marble Bar-Wodgina Road. Kimber (1984) identified the largest nine pegmatites, and GPS co-ordinates suggested of the largest is 736,547E 7,609,531N UTM50 AGD84.Limited mining of 0.34 tonnes of cassiterite-yttrotantalite concentrates happened in the 1960's, resulting in several small pits and trenches. Further alluvial material was collected from 1980-1982 by Pilgan Mining Limited amounting to 10 tonnes of concentrate. An author in the reference observed the concentrates in 1982, containing a mixture of formanite, microlite, monazite and cassiterite.The largest pegmatite is described as tantalum and rare earth bearing in a 200 x 10 metre area, on the north side of Tambina Creek, with further pegmatites to the north-west. The map in the reference (from Kimber 1984) shows the largest pegmatite just north of the Marble Bar-Wodgina Road.The pegmatites have intruded into an Archaean metamorphic greenstone inclusion of metabasalt and meta-ultramafics near the western edge of the Shaw Batholith. There are two types of pegmatites in the group. The first shows cassiterite, monazite and tanteuxenite, as sub-parrallel swarms less than 0.5 metres wide dykes. The second are deformed and boudinaged albite pegmatites, zoned with quartz cores, and containing beryl, formanite, 'Lepidolite', muscovite, spodumene, yttrotantalite, and zinnwaldite. |

The pegmatite was the site of the first discovery of amblygonite in Western Australia. It is difficult to distinguish from the white quartz which makes-up the majority of the deposit.It was discovered in 1910, and shortly after six tonnes of amblygonite was mined until 1913, when the deposit was permanently abandoned.It occurs in a pipe in a pegmatite vein. There are six shallow pits along the track, but amblygonite is only found next to the southern most pit, and is not visible from the track. The pegmatite has never been properly mapped. Observations from the reference indicate a strongly weathered albite-quartz-muscovite pegmatite.Instructions as per the reference to locate is. Go 5 kilometres east along Great Eastern Highway towards Coolgardie from the abandoned Bullabulling Roadhouse. Turn north onto an abandoned and partly rehabilitated mining track, and continue north for 7.2 kilometres. Here turn east onto another track, and a small earth dam will be passed on the south side of the track 200 metres in. Travel on this track 2.45 kilometres to a four way dirt track junction. Take the first right track for 0.55 kilometres, with the first two of the six pits right next to the track. Park the car at pit 5 and walk southward (left) to pit 6.At the time of visit in 2012, only a small pile of amblygonite remained, and rock collecting clubs have visited since, although some scraps may remain. The Mindat co-ordinates are approximate, as the site is not apparent on satellite images. |

Former MC131 contains alluvial cassiterite and columbite-tantalite diggings along Houston Creek in an area known as Wagon Wheel Patch. Nearby in the same licence are excavations in two pegmatites named Workings No 1 and 2. Gilbert and G Houston's Shaft is thought to be in the north-east corner of MC131, described as a manganotantalite-spodumene pegamatite, but could be the same location as Working No1. W.E. Griffiths Lode MC is also in MC131 and may also be referring to Working No 1. |

Located 3 kilometres south of Widgiemooltha. The Imperial, Cardiff Castle, and the Mount mines are also in the immediate area.Nickel mine.Titan Resources in 2005, estimated a resource of 641 000 tonnes of ore at 1.46% Ni yielding 9360 tonnes of metal from below the base of the present small abandoned pit.Gossan discovered by R.E. Cotton in 1967 in an old gold mining prospecting pit. Serpentinite lense forming a small prominent hill. Some mineralisation arsenical, minor copper.The ultramafic formation is 600 metres thick of numerous picritic to peridotitic flow units, altered to tremolite, chlorite, serpentine, talc, and carbonate, with lenticular metabasalt, and metadolerite in the eastern part.Laminated carbonaceous or sulphidic cherty metasedimentary horizons are found between the flows. Grey-green serpentine outcrops on the hill. The ultramafic host contains an irregular shaped lense at the base of the formation, 110 metres long by 30 metres thick. The Footwall is amphibolite containing hornblende prismatic crystals and some chlorite.Grey quartz-feldspar porphyries intrude parallel to the deposit. Massive sulphide in thin to irregular breccia ore, one metre thick. Primary mineralisation is pyrrhotite, pentlandite, minor pyrite, chalcopyrite, magnetite, skutterudite, bravoite. Minor replacement of pentlandite with violarite at the 290 metre level. Violarite is the major mineral at the base of the oxidised zone. Chalcopyrite veinlets are found at the margins of the massive sulphides. Grades 3-20% Ni, averages 11% Ni.A small lithium bearing pegamtite was encountered during mining, 2-3 metres wide, containing quartz, albite, slightly pinkish spodumene up to 10 cms long, botryoidal 'Lepidolite' to 2 cms across, and 5cm long elbaite with pink interiors and light blue exteriors, and inky blue elbaite to 5 mms long. |

Oxidic iron-rich nickel-cobalt deposit in deeply weathered ultramafic rocks. Discovered in the 1970s. Located on Aboriginal land in the remote central east sector of Western Australia close to the South Australian border.One source states discovered in 1950's and the other 1970's both by Inco. ( it also states Tollu discovered in 1957 by Inco). Little more was done for 25 years due to a ban on mining by the local aboriginal land council. This has been relaxed in recent years. Metals X presently controls the deposit, along with Claude Hills in South Australia, 30 kilometres to the east. Wingellina is one of the world's largest nickeliferous oxide limonite deposits. Metals X is seeking a financial partner to develop the site, however its remoteness, lack of infrasture and distance from a port has prevented any such developments.The band of mineralization occurs up to 600 metres wide along a 10 kilometre strike and usually 80-100 metres below the surface. The band trends north-west to south-east immediately north-east to east of the Wingellina indigenous community. The resource is 167 MT at 1% Ni and 0.08% Co. Should a mine ever develop, its estimated life would be 46 years producing 40,000 tonnes of nickel and 3000 tonnes of cobalt per annum.Such an important mineral occurrence should have more geology information printed about it, however its apparent simply geology being nickel grades in clay seems to discourage scientific investigation. The prospect is hosted within ultramafic rocks of the Wingellina layered intrusive complex. The deep oxidation of the ultramafic rocks has resulted in the formation of significant iron-rich nickel/cobalt oxides. The exposure of ocherous clays highlights the presence of outcropping nickel oxide mineralization over wide areas of the deposit.Nickel grades are associated with yellow-brown and red-brown ochre stained iron-rich clays, developed over dunite in the layered sequence. High-grade cobalt bands are associated with discrete manganese oxides within the oxide profiles.One source states gem quality chrysoprase is associated with the ocherous clays. The gemstone also occurs at the nearby Wingellina prospect, and in the region at Jamieson and Claude Hills.Access is not possible as the sites are on aboriginal reserves. |

This mine was the world's major supplier of Tantalite during the twentieth century until its depletion by 1994.It is located 109 kilometres south of Port Hedland and 7 kilometres west of the Great Northern Highway.In the early part of the twentieth century, Tantalite was a rare commodity, and despite its remoteness, Wodgina supplied most of the world's Tantalite. In the early years of mining, the ore was carted by camel to the coast.Tantalite was discovered at the location in 1901 by brothers Francis and William Michell, who subsequently mined 70 tonnes of the ore between 1905-1909. A company called Tantalite Ltd formed by Lady Deborah V Hackett-Moulden and N.S. Young then mined the site between 1925 to 1943, exporting tantalite ore concentrate mainly to the United States.In 1943, the mine was taken over by the Australian Government as part of its wartime effort. Tantalite concentrate continued to be exported to the United States, and in addition during this period beryl was exported. In 1927, geologist E.S Simpson had identified large masses of cesium bearing white beryl at the northern end of the pegmatite. It is thought this was used as part of the Manhattan Project, which was researching the development of an atomic bomb.After the war, Tantalite Ltd, continued to operate the mine, however, by 1953 it had run out of funds, and sold the mine to Northwest Tantalum Ltd. This company then found its new purchase to be uneconomic, and had reliquished the lease by 1957. Between 1957 to 1963 the mine was operated by prospector L.J. Wilson. In 1963 the mine was purchased by J.A. Johnson and Sons Pty Ltd, then by Avela in 1967, and Goldrim Mining in 1968.Goldrim formed a partnership with Goldfield Corp(New York) and Chemalloy Minerals Ltd (Toronto). The investigations into the pegmatite by this last firm discovered the new species Wodginite. Mining occurred sporadically until Goldrim formed a new partnership with Pan West Tantalum Pty Ltd, who opened open pit mining at the site in 1989. By 1994 most of the pegmatite had been removed and mining ceased. From 2012 Atlas Iron Limited was mining iron ore next door to the tantalite mine.The aplitic pegmatite is 670 metres long by 3 to 15 metres wide, and zoned. cleavelandite with tantalum minerals, spessartine, and minor quartz and muscovite; albite-quartz-muscovite with minor microcline; albite-quartz-microcline; isolated grey quartz masses core; sugary albite and Li mica; white cesium bearing beryl, lithium phosphate masses and 'Lepidolite' at the northern end only.A limited number of species are in circulation from the mine, thought to have been collected before 1989, when large scale mining removed most of the pegmatite. Local collectors have been turned away from the mine in recent years.The Mindat listing of emerald for this locality is incorrect. E.S Simpson reported a prospector finding a few small emerald crystals 3.2 kilometres northwest of the mine as alluvial float, but the source of these emeralds is unknown.Government geologist, E.S. Simpson in 1928 made mention about a number of species at the mine. Whether any of it remains due to mining is another question. He states lithiophilite and purpurite are found in large masses. Unaltered it is pale grey in colour and translucent, weathering to amber yellow, then brown with blood red flakes (pure purpurite) and finally black ,stained by psilomelane.Apatite is found as narrow veins of white or pale grey apatite, in several masses of lithiophilite. One pegmatite has a large lithiophilite masses dotted with deep greenish-blue apatite pieces.Scheelite is found in biotite schist next to a pegmatite, and occasionally in alluvial tin and tantalum. Several pegmatite veins showing spessartine garnet, being large shapeless masses, or small well formed crystals, very pale brown, yellow, pink, and in alluvial but coated with black psilomelane. Vesuvianite as dense drusy olive brown masses. One specimen of topaz seen.Large schorl crystals in pegmatite veins. Near spodumene occurs almost microscopic prisms of indigo blue indicolite. Yellowish nontronite as small seams in weathered amphibolite, and traversing jasper.Gangue minerals associated with the tantalite is albite, microcline, quartz, with lesser kaolin, beryl, spessartine, and lithiophilite. Tantalite shows as large masses, twin and single crystals. There are also several deposits of manganocolumbite. Ixiolite is found in the main lode as a homogeneous mass with no crystals. A little pyrrhotite is found associated with cassiterite in a biotite chlorite schist forming one wall of a pegmatite.Immense bands of yellow, brown and grey jasper plentiful in the western half of Wodgina. Spodumene is plentiful in a tin bearing pegmatite vein, showing as flat cleavable pale grey plates up to 2 x 1 x 0.5 inches. Beryl is found as large irregular masses, pale milky white, translucent, and resembling quartz. |

Manganese was discovered here in 1950, and small scale mining took place until 1990, when large scale open pit mining of high-grade Mn ores took over.The mine is located approximately 150 kilometres south-east of Marble Bar, in the southern Gregory Ranges, the last mountain range before the Great Sandy Desert. Consolidated Minerals Ltd operates the mine as a series of open cuts running north-south along the valley floor.The company has built a bitumen road from Marble Bar to the mine through this scenic area, and is open to the public, although of course the mine is not.Manganese deposits occur as cavity fill within the Carawine Dolomite, and as sheets/lenses in the Pinjian chert breccia overlying this dolomite. The Carawine Dolomite is a member of the 2600-2450 Ma Hamersley Group, and lies in an area of carbonates, shales and minor cherts that separate the Marra Mamba and Brockman Iron Formations, that hosts mines in the Pilbara to the west. It is believed the manganese has developed by supergene processes during the paleoproterozoic period, at least partially by hydrothermal processes. The largest manganese deposit found at the mine was a pipe like body to 30 metres, and others have been fissures or form cappings on the dolomite, or chert breccia above the dolomite.The company describes itself as a boutique supplier of high grade manganese. Fifty trucks per day haul ore from the mine, 400 kilometres to Port Hedland. Estimated reserves as at June 2011 were 29.9 MT at 39.9% manganese. The company employs about 700 workers on a fly in/out basis.For those who want to drive four days to the mine from Perth, lumps of manganese can be picked up at the mine entrance, having literally fallen off the back of a truck. The company should be congratulated for preserving an oasis at the mine entrance. |

10 miles East of Barraba, a large open pit excavation of serpentine rock containing asbestos minerals.Located in the Parish of Woods Reef.The former mine extended over an area of approximately 400 hectares. The site comprisd a 75 million tonne waste rock dump, a 25 million tonne tailings dump and a number of open pits, some containing considerable quantities of water.In 2014, the NSW Government provided funding of $6.3 million to address the most significant health, safety and environmental issues at the Woodsreef Mine, including.(i) the containment of processed friable chrysotile asbestos; (ii) removal of the mill building, silos, and administration buildings; (iii) implementation of a comprehensive air quality monitoring program; and (iv) health risk assessment before, during and following remediation works. The mine buildings have been demolished and the mine road is also closed to the public due to the ongoing danger of asbestos. |

The Yerila gneissic complex forms a 14 km on 4 km surface of discontinuous outcrops. The area is not named on topographic maps but includes the Mt Babbage (Eastern part), Birthday Well (South) and Pigeon Spring (North). The closest main stations are Mt Fitton and Moolawatana. The Mt Yerila, located 14 km to the North should not be confused with it.The Yerila gneiss (1555 Ma) is generally showing large laths of oriented microcline, large allanite patches, biotite, oligoclase and contains alkaline amphiboles. The rock has a metasomatic origin and represents the high-level plume of the nearby rapakivi Terrapinna Granite (1560 Ma). The pre-metasomatic rock was of volcanic (rhyolites, tuffs, etc.) and of sedimentary origin (sandstones, carbonates). The rock is extremely rich in rare earth elements (up to a few percents), uranium, thorium and fluorine.The complex is crosscut by amphibolite dikes (~800 Ma) and intruded by a 3 x 6 km Palaeozoic tonalite and numerous granitic pegmatites. |

Dobrá Voda lies approximately 21 kilometres (13 mi) south-east of Žďár nad Sázavou, 35 km (22 mi) east of Jihlava, and 141 km (88 mi) south-east of Prague.Granitic 'Lepidolite' pegmatite in Strážek Moldanubicum. Symmetrically zoned, steeply dipping dyke up to 6 m thick and about 100 m long in amphibolite and gneiss. Known since 1934.It consists of (1) a volumetrically dominant marginal granitic unit, (2) a graphic unit, (3) a coarse-grained albite unit with blocks of K feldspar, which is subdivided into three subunits. (3a) muscovite albite, (3b) outer 'Lepidolite'–albite, and (3c) inner 'Lepidolite'–albite. Subunit 3c is adjacent to (4) a 'Lepidolite' unit in the central part of the dike. Amblygonite–montebrasite and pseudomorphs of spodumene + quartz intergrowths after petalite occur in subunits (3b) and (3c). Typical accessory minerals include andalusite, dumortierite, (Nb,Ta)-oxide minerals (manganocolumbite, stibiotantalite, microlite, manganotantalite), apatite, zircon, and cassiterite (Novák & Staněk 1999, Novák & Taylor 2000).NOTE. Not to be confused with the Dobrá Voda locality in Bohemia (Ag-(Au)-polymetallic mineralization). |

Greisen deposit mined since 14th century, now abandoned. Greisens were mined first for tin and later for tungsten. The site is a huge depression and is closed for trespassing. It is not guarded, however, visits can be dangerous especially after winter or rains because of active landslides and falling rocks.The locality is still productive with many mineral specimens, though do not expect to find large crystals like during mining.Located between Krásno and Horní Slavkov, but closer to Krásno.Not to be confused with the Huber stock near Boží Dar (Gottesgab), Karlovy Vary District (https.//www.mindat.org/loc-69518.html). |

Largest zoned granitic pegmatite vein know at the locality and largest pegmatite vein known in the territory of the Czech Republic. Cca 600 m long and up to 30 m thick. Mined in period 1962 to 1972 by 8 underground levels up to 140 m below the ground. Typical for Fe-Mn phosphates (found only in dump material). The richest vein in the mineral phases at the site. Quarried before WWII, later mined by short adit. |

Přibyslavice (German Pribislaw) is a village in the municipality of Vlkaneč in the district of Kutná Hora. It is located about 4 km north of Vlkaneč.Přibyslavice is located in the cadastral area of Přibyslavice u Vlkanče with an area of 4.78 km².Small complex of Přibyslavice granite primarily consists of alkali-feldspar tourmaline-muscovite granite that chemically belongs to peraluminous (at places even hyperaluminous) granites. It is enriched by B, C, Cs, F, Li, Nb, P, Rb, Sn, Ta, U and Zn. Formation of Přibyslavice granite is considered to be a product of diffusion granitization of the metamorphosed substrate by an alkali-rich melt and subsequent younger albitization. Complex mineralization is divided into rock-forming minerals (including almandine garnet) and accessories (sulphides, dumortierite etc.), pods and nests of primary and secondary Li-Fe-Mn-Ca-Zn phosphates, minerals of tin-bearing granite (cassiterite, nigerite), pegmatite minerals ('Lepidolite' etc.). |

Small outcrop at the top of the Borovina hill near Rožná. The outcrop is not natural and was made during WW2 when quartz and feldspars were mined. Borovina is not so heavily visited as Hradisko hill and still could offer some surprising finds. It is quite difficult to find it in the bushy forest, especially when everything is green. |

Small abandoned quarry at the top of the Hradisko hill near Rožná village.This is the first opening of the Rožná Li-pegmatite vein, where 'Lepidolite' is TL. The whole vein is over 1km long and has another outcrop on the top of the Borovina hill and some relicts could be found in the nearby fields.The quarry was first mined for 'Lepidolite' in the 19th century and during WWI. After 1919 mining was stopped and revived only during WWII for shortlived mining of feldspar and quartz.The locality is now abandoned and open for public collecting. Because it is well known, the site suffers from a heavy load of collectors every year and therefore good specimens are becoming rarer. |

Rudolfov (German. Rudolfstadt) is a town and municipality in České Budějovice District in the South Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic.Abandoned quarry at the SW margin of Lišov granulite massif. Quarry opened pyroxenic granulite with intercalations of amphibolites and biotitic gneiss. Abundant aplites and pegmatites are connected mostly with paragneisses and contact of paragneisses with pyroxenic granulites. 4 major pegmatite bodies are known. Fissures in rocks are also filled with minerals of so-called alpine paragenesis. |

Abandoned pit quarry in granitic pegmatite mined for quartz and feldspar. The quarry was active from 1883 to 1897. Area 25 x 30 m, depth 40 m. The quarry was closed due to the flooding with water. The quarrying was attempted again unsuccessfully in 1925.The quarry was famous for its up to 50 cm long schorl crystals, common beryl crystals up to 25 cm and beryl gem varieties (heliodor, aquamarine), monazite as tabular crystals (up to 1.5 x 2 cm) and dipyramidal, up to 5 mm large xenotime crystals. |

The Loma Caribe peridotite represents a harzburgitic oceanic mantle, as part of a dismembered Cretaceous ophiolitic complex. The Loma Caribe deposit is classified as hydrous Mg silicate type, and, based on its geochemical footprint, textures and mineralogy, has been divided into several zones, which are, from bottom to top, the serpentinised peridotite, the saprolite horizon, the oxide horizon and a duricrust zone. The protolith is a serpentinised peridotite rich in olivine and enstatite, crosscut by serpentine minerals (i.e., lizardite). The saprolite horizon consists of Ni-rich lizardite with relicts of olivine and enstatite, and with minor clinochlore, maghemite and goethite. In the oxide horizon, ore samples contain goethite, hematite, gibbsite and chromian spinel.[1] |

Huge pegmatite mined for columbite-tantalite. From 1915 to the stop of mining in the mid 1980s, the deposit has produced about 140,000 tonnes of cassiterite concentrate and 4500 tonnes of columbite–tantalite concentrate. 100 Mt of reserves.Operations also suggest that the Manono deposit hosts one of the largest reserves of lithium in the world (30 M tons of spodumene at 6% lithium oxide). Consists of two main zones that stretch over an area with a length of ~15 km and a width of ~800 m. Kitotolo in the southwest and Manono-Kahungwe in the northeast. |

Mining area around the town of Rubaya.The area is presently plagued by strong ethnic and political tensions, and by the frequent conflicts between SMB (Société Minière de Bisunzu), holder of the mining license, and COOPERAMMA (Coopérative des Exploitants Artisanaux Miniers de Masisi), which provides a legal framework for most of the artisanal diggers working in the Rubaya mining sites.The Lowowo (or Luwowo) area (with the sites of Muderi, Muchache and Kowete) and the Muvumbuko and Gakombe sites are mainly exploited for coltan and cassiterite.The Rukaza-Rubaya site, since 2014, produces gemmy crystals of tourmaline with exceptional transparency and a wide variety of colours. The site is characterised by numerous artisanal pits, trenches, and short tunnels dug in laterite, that sometimes reach unaltered portions of the pegmatite dyke. According to Laurs et al. (2017), the tourmalines studied from this site appear to be elbaite with a modest liddicoatite component and with Fe and Mn as main chromophores. The site essentially yields loose tourmaline crystals, up to 15 cm in length, rarely associated with minor crystals of quartz, albite var. cleavelandite, 'Lepidolite', microlite, and cassiterite. Unfortunately, many crystals are damaged directly on the excavation face by the miners, who are focused only on the extraction of tourmaline gem rough.The Rukaza-Rubaya site in the IPIS report (2016) is erroneously identified with the Rwangara/Shakubangwa site, located ca. 20 km to the south of Rubaya at an elevation of 2719 m. According to Pezzotta & Tarditi (2020), the latter site, as well as the nearby Numbi locality, is an alluvial deposit essentially exploited for coltan and cassiterite, in which coloured tourmalines are also present but with low gemmological properties.Note. the locality usually indicated in the past years by mineral dealers for the high-quality tourmalines from Rukaza-Rubaya is Goma, the capital of North Kivu. Goma is practically the confluence point of all tourmaline gem rough mined in both North and South Kivu, from where it is generally illegally exported through Uganda. |

Bohemian Massif |
A historic mining district which has been exploited since the Late Middle Ages. It is split across the borders between Saxony, Germany (Zinnwald) and Bohemia, Czech Republic (Cinovec).Originally mined for tin and tungsten whereas today Deutsche Lithium GmbH plans on producing battery-grade lithium hydroxide for the European battery market (Zinnwald Lithium Project) and potential by-products such as high purity potassium sulphate, precipitated calcium carbonate and tin.Geologically, the mining district is characterized by a Li-Sn-W greisen deposit formed when the Zinnwald albite granite intruded the Teplice rhyolites (Neßler et al, 2017). According to Dittrich et al. (2020), the major part of Li-Sn-W mineralisation occurs as greisen beds and veins within the granite (endocontact) and only to a lesser extent in the surrounding Teplice rhyolites (exocontact). Müller et al. (2018), after conducting thermobarometric measurements, report that the albite granite solidified at 575 ± 48 °C, the stockwork at 612 ± 12 °C, the massive greisen at 610 ± 23 °C, the flat mineralized veins at 536 ± 77 °C and the steep mineralized veins at 516 ± 58 °C. |

Haapaluoma is a pegmatite quarry mined for feldspar starting 1961, and it has been quarried by Oy Lohja Ab and later by Paraisten kalkki companies.The pegmatite consists of two parallel dykes that lie within the granodioritic country rock. The main dyke is 0.5 km long and 10 - 30 m wide. The main minerals of the pegmatite are microcline, albite, quartz, and mica. Haapaluoma is a zoned lithium pegmatite containing accessory beryl, spodumene, 'Lepidolite', columbite, and other pegmatitic minerals. |

'Pegmatite' |
Pegmatite |
Baltic Shield (Fennoscandian Shield) |
An old pegmatite quarry mined for quartz already in the 19th century. Later Kaatiala was mined from 1942 to 1968 for mainly potash feldspar. The production amounted to 160.000 tonnes of feldspar and 30.000 tons of quartz. Additional production included muscovite (700 tons), columbite (5 tons), löllingite (5 tons) and 18 tons of beryl.Kaatiala is a zoned complex pegmatite enriched in many rare elements, such as lithium, cesium, rubidium and niobium. It was crystallized from granitic magma 1800 million years ago in a crevice in surrounding granodiorite country rock.Kaatialaite, a new ferric arsenate mineral, was found from Kaatiala in 1984. It occurs as a secondary mineral on löllingite. Kaatiala is the type locality for kaatialaite. |

The Länttä deposit was discovered by Suomen Mineraali Oy in the early 1960s. Paraisten Kalkkivuori Oy explored the deposit and carried out diamond drilling in 1963–1967. Pilot testing, metallurgic studies and tests to manufacture lithium salts were carried out in 1978 and 1980. Partek Oy (previously Paraisten Kalkkivuori) gave up its mining rights in 1982.Keliber has continued the exploration of the Länttä deposit with diamond drilling programmes in 2004–2005 and 2011–2013. Bulk samping has also been carried out in Länttä for benefication tests and metallurgic tests. The latest bulk sampling was conducted in the summer of 2013. About 300 tonnes of ore was mined from two different sections of the main vein.The pegmatite in Länttä is a typical example of uniform albite-spodumene pegmatite. The deposit consists of two main veins. The maximum thickness of the veins is about ten metres. Small, thinner veins parallel to the main vein occur in the vicinity of the main veins.Both intermediary-mafic metavolcanites and metamorphic sedimentary rock (metagreywacke, mica schist) occur as host rock in the area. The pegmatite veins run from north-east to south-west and are almost vertical, sloping by 70 degrees towards the southeast. (Source. https.//www.keliber.fi/en/geology/deposits/lantta/ ) |

This locality is well known for its occurrence of native antimony. It has been erroneously called Satamo Quarry (Satamo is a place nearby).This quarry is now closed and will be filled with water. There are still good possibilities to find Antimony in the surroundings. |

Active, huge kaolinite quarry in albite-'Lepidolite' granite ('Beauvoir granite'), albitites and greisens. Located NW of the La Bosse mine, about 2 km ESE of Échassières.The mineralogy is similar to that of the nearby Les Montmins Mine, except that arsenates are extremely rare in the quarry. Excellent wavellite, variscite, and plumbogummite come from here. |

A former copper mine operated underground from 1862 until 1917. The operation was done in 3 main sectors spread around the "Colle Noire" hill.- Mine Nord (north mine) has been partly converted into a museum since 1994;- Mine Sud (south mine) is now closed;- La Gavaresse (small mine north of the North mine).In the Mindat list, the location for mineral species is by default "Cap Garonne mine" and not a more detailed location (North, South, La Gavaresse), as the exact information was not always available. Whenever possible, new descriptions should please be made using "North Mine", "South Mine" and "La Gavaresse workings".This deposit is a mineralized layer of Triassic conglomerates covering Permian red sandstones. The primary mineralization is contemporary to or immediately after their deposit, probably linked with hydrothermal activity. Then, the sulphides that permeate the conglomerate were oxidized, allowing the formation of many secondary minerals in faults and small cavities of the ore.It is currently the most prolific French locality for new species (14 as of January 2014) and also for different valid species (127 as of January 2014). Minerals mainly include arsenates, sulphates, halides of Cu, Pb, Al, Zn, Fe, Co, Ni, U, Hg, Ag.Beware. this site belongs to the "Conservatoire du Littoral" (French coastal protection agency) since 1995 and mineral collecting is prohibited in and outside the mine. |

"South of Razès on the D60A. The local quarries yield autunite, beryl, muscovite, quartz, and topaz." [Belot, 1978]Ancient feldspar quarry in a phosphate pegmatite. A find of torbernite in 1947 led to the discovery of the La Crouzille deposit, which later became the economically most important uranium deposit in France. Located near Chabanne, 2.5 km WSW of St Sylvestre and around 5 km S of Razès. |

A Manganese mine. first concession in 1887 and then work mining at intervals till closing in 1965. Main artisanal mining extracted 1,500 t at 28% Mn and 4% Fe between 1899 and 1949. It would be concretions and balls of complex manganese oxides concentrated in karstic "pockets" as frequently observed in the Mouthoumet massif. |

Located 1 km west of Montebras and around 7 km SE of Boussac.Translation of the French Wikipedia page.The mines of Montebras are located next to the village of the same name in the commune of Soumans, in the department of Creuse, in France. The area, very rich in minerals, has been exploited from Antiquity to the present day.During Antiquity, first the Celts and then the Romans exploited tin mines. The discovery of tinning is attributed to the Bituriges Gauls, who lived in the region.In 1858, the deposit was rediscovered by mining engineer François Ernest Mallard. This discovery revived the exploitation of tin. The "Société des mines d'étain de Montebras" ("Montebras Tin Mining Company") was created in April 1867 by Henri Poisson. Mining, carried out from 1865 to 1877, resumed around 1891 and again in 1908, spread between 1868 and 1942. 300 tonnes of tin were produced during this period. The Montebras site still contains a small reserve of tin estimated at 1,000 tonnes.The vein system, in which tin occurs, constitutes an irregular and heterogeneous network of about fifty veins embedded, either in the porphyroid granulite or especially, in its vicinity, in the pinite granite. Its importance was exaggerated when the mine opened, according to geologists.In the twentieth century, amblygonite and montebrasite were exploited to extract lithine, also known as lithium hydroxide. Montebrasite takes its name from the Montebras mine.Since 1965, the site is again open for the extraction of feldspar. It is no longer a question of underground mines but of an open-pit quarry forming a huge crater of pure white. The "Société des feldspath du Morvan" ("Morvan Feldspath Company"), which operates the site, exports the production to Italy where it is used in the ceramics industry. The "Felspath du Morvan" company ceased its activity at the end of 1975.The site is currently operated by the company Imerys Ceramics France, a subsidiary of the Imerys group. |

The Lukhumi deposit is located in the gorge of the small Madnis-Gele river, which is a left tributary of the upper reaches of the river Lukhumis-tskhali.The exact location of the Lukhumi deposit was established by Prof. Tvalchrelidze in 1930, before that it was known from the stories of local hunters.The Lukhum ore field is confined to flysch deposits of the Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous age, among which clastogenic (sandstones, siltstones, shales), carbonate (limestones, marls) and terrigenous-carbonate rocks are distinguished. The ore-bearing materials for the deposit are dark gray and black shales, black clastic limestones and marls, classified into the so-called Lukhum Formation.Located within the Lechkhumi Range (Georgian. ლეჩხუმის ქედი) which is a mountain range in Georgia, a southern part of the Caucasus Mountains. The Lechkhumi range serves as a watershed, separating the Tskhenistsqali and Rioni river valleys.The length of the range is 66 km and the width is about 25 km. Its maximum height is 3584 metres (the peak of mountain Samertskhle).The Lechkhumi Range has a glacial landform, including U-shaped valleys and cirques. It is mainly composed of lower and middle Jurassic slates, sandstones and limestones. The Lechkhumi Range encompasses 4 glaciers, which cover 2 km². It is mostly covered by oak, hornbeam, beech, spruce, and fir. The highest part has alpine and subalpine landscapes. |

Ancient iron and copper Mine, closed in 1899. Located 3 km N of Hirschberg.Note. Ullersreuth is not in Saxony (as given in many references).Note on the "liroconite" reported in the old literature.It was originally reported by Breithaupt, A. (1841). Vollständiges Handbuch der Mineralogie, Bd. 2, Dresden und Leipzig, p. 158, who later, however, noted that this was a wrong identification and that the sample was in fact "Tagilite" (= Pseudomalachite). Breithaupt, A. (1865). Mineralogische Studien. 3. Tagilit.- Berg- und hüttenmännische Zeitung 24, 309-312A SXRD study of an old sample in the collection of the Natural History Museum, Vienna has confirmed this (U. Kolitsch). |

Schist |
Mine |
Taunus Mountain Range |
An abandoned lead mine, closed in 1913, working siderite-quartz veins bearing a suite of Zn-Pb-Cu-Ag minerals hosted by Lower Devonian schists.Located near Frücht, about 4.5 km SW of Bad Ems.Note on the mineral list. Möhn et al. (2009) also mention an unidentified "copper-zinc carbonate", which contains also arsenate and sulphate, but is "practically X-ray amorphous". All studied calumetite samples turned out to be this mineral. |

Ore Mountains Mountain Range |
Formed in 1859 by the amalgamation of the Gottes Geschick and St Catharina mines. It also included the Treue Freundschaft adit, which worked veins outside of the Graul complex.Minerals collected from a dump located near the St Catharina open pit are listed with this entry. Although the dump is occasionally associated with the Gottes Geschick mine, it cannot be attributed with certainty to any of the two mines. |

Old feldspar quarry in a phosphate pegmatite; abandoned in 1937. The total output was 220 000 tons of feldspar. The quarry is located at the end of Hagendorf village, direction Miesbrunn. Near by the street the shaft remains and the overgrown open-pit mine (boundary fence) are visible. Some hundred meters far away in a forest there is a small trench. |

'Pegmatite' |
Pegmatite |
Bohemian Massif |
Zoned granitic phosphate pegmatite, worked mainly for feldspar. The deposit was initially exploited from an open cut, started in 1894 and operated until the 1920s. From 1928 to 1964, it was worked from several shafts. During the 1950s, triphylite was mined as a lithium ore, and about 1,000 tons were raised. In 1964, the lease was taken over by the "Amberger Kaolinwerke", who sunk a new main shaft (Cornelia shaft) down to the 115 m level and started to work the deposit from the open cut again. This and the mine were closed in 1984.Nowadays, it is a bird biotope (protected area).Located SW of Hagendorf and 2.5 km NW of Waidhaus. |

pegmatite |
NaN |
A pegmatite on the summit of Rotes Kreuz hill, southwest of Tirschenreuth. The locality is mostly referred to as Sägmühle in the literature, but this place (presumably the site of a saw mill) doesn't appear on contemporary maps and only survives in a road name in the southwestern outskirts of TirschenreuthThe pegmatite was mined on a small scale for quartz and feldspar for some time during the middle of the 19th century, but the quarry was eventually obliterated and hasn't been accessible since the late 19th century (Laubmann & Steinmetz, 1920). Though, limited finds can still be made occasionally in pegmatite boulders and pebbles that occur in the forest and on the surrounding fields. |

At the Spitzleithe an iron mining area was existing which was part of the Schneeberg mining district. The biggest mine in that area was the Gott segne beständig Fundgrube, known as the type locality for lithiophorite. In the old literature lots of pseudomorphs are mentioned. lithiophorite, hematite, asbolane and quartz after calcite as well as hematite and quartz after pyromorphite.Coordinates are for the Spitzleithe bus stop. |

Series of iron-ore deposits |
NaN |
Cretaceous iron ore deposits occur in a NW-trending fault zone to the east and northeast of Sulzbach-Rosenberg. The individual deposits, from southeast to northwest, are Eichelberg, St Georg, St Anna, Karoline, Etzmannsberg, Fromm (formerly Delphin, renamed in 1895) and Großenfalz.Iron has been mined in this area since mediaeval times, as was confirmed by finds of 9th/10th century furnaces in archaeological excavations. The earliest document dates back to 1348, when the citizens of Sulzbach were granted the rights to mine iron from the Eichelberg deposit. The Eichelberg Mine was also the last mine to close in 1977.Note. On specimen labels, Sulzbach-Rosenberg is occasionally used as a generic name for the Upper Palatinate iron mining district and may refer to any of the mines around Amberg, Auerbach, Krumbach and Vilseck-Langenbruck (see separate entries). Coordinates are approximate. |

The Ilimaussaq alkaline intrusive complex covers an area of 8 by 17 km and is Mesoproterozoic in age (ca. 1.16 Ga).The complex is made up of three magmatic phases, where intrusions of augite syenite, alkali acid rocks, and agpaitic nepheline syenites took place. Their mineralization occurs in pegmatites, hydrothermally altered pegmatites, and hydrothermal veins. Most of the locations concentrate at the banks of the fjords Kangerluarsuk and Tunulliarfik (Eriksfjord) as well as in the centre of the Narsaq peninsula.The peralkaline "Green Granite" composition includes. aegirine, aenigmatite, arfvedsonite, astrophyllite, britholite-(Ce), catapleiite, chevkinite-(Ce), ekanite, elpidite, fluorite, henrymeyerite, ilmenite, leucosphenite, lorenzenite, narsarsukite, neptunite, monazite-(Ce), richterite, thorite, titanite, and zircon. In addition, five unidentified phases and a Fe-poor Ba titanate are mentioned (Cegiełka et al., 2022). |

Aegirine, albite and narsarsukite-bearing peralkaline trachyte dyke located on the Illutalik Island (formerly spelled Igdlutalik). The dyke which is located about 12 km west of the Ilímaussaq complex (!) is part of a Precambrian swarm of ENE-WSW trending alkaline dikes.Note. The narsarsukite from Igdlutalik originally is colourless or rose-coloured, but with a few exceptions altered to a green mixture of aegirine and albite. |

Ivittuut or Ivigtut is an abandoned mining town located on the coast of Arsuk fjord in southern Greenland. It was the centre of the Ivituut municipality from 1951 until 2008.Ivigtut was the world's only mine for cryolite. Cryolite was used [as early as the nineteenth century] as a flux for processing bauxite in aluminum production and before that to produce opaline glass. The mine closed several times in the 1960s, 1970s & 1980s but production continued – dumps were dug out, the mine reopened to excavate low-grade ore and finally the pier, made from 'waste rock', was removed and processed.Most of the interesting sulphides are known from small spots in polished ore sections (galena is a good indicator mineral!). In cryolite only pyrite, galena, sphalerite and chalcopyrite are common. Molybdenite chiefly occurs in the host rock, enclosing the cryolite orebody.Ivigtut is a spectacular source of rare minerals, but optimistic, erroneous identifications abound. Cryolite crystals are for all practical purposes rarely available – they were collected a long time ago, and everybody wants them. Virtually all specimens came from two large pockets. By far most of the 'cryolite crystals' I see are thomsenolite, pachnolite, hydrokenoralstonite or something similar, subject to optimistic interpretation. Incidentally, thomsenolite does occur as parallel grown very large pseudo-cubic crystals and/or crystals with strong basal cleavage that make good cryolite imitations!Particularly European dealers in the 1980s offered prosopite crystals, more often than not accompanied by assurances they had been 'x-rayed' and were thus correctly identified. Bogus! Most – most, but not all! — of these are microscopic crystals of hydrokenoralstonite, coating the interior of druses in massive blue prosopite. Obviously, if you remove the interior of a druse with a dental drill, and look for prosopite on your X-ray machine, you are going to find… prosopite! This comes from the matrix, not the crystals. Prosopite crystals are quite rare, invariably 'flattened six-sided' (say, like a double arrowhead), whereas hydrokenoralstonite is cubic (and in this association, usually octahedral).Many uninformed people claim Ivigtut as the locality for their specimens, merely because it is the most famous locality there. Villiaumite… when I see this, I usually just walk away from the perpetrator. Villiaumite is sodium fluoride, comes from Greenland, and thus must be from Ivigtut 'where all the fluorides come from.' I doubt anybody would accept a claim of benitoite [should be from Gem Mine, San Benito Co., California] as coming from the Stewart Mine near Pala, San Diego Co. [lithium pegmatite with tourmaline] merely because both produce interesting silicates? In Greenland, villiaumite occurs exclusively at Kvanefjeld in the Ilimaussaq alkaline intrusion near Narssaq… a bit further than San Diego Co. is from San Benito Co.(Comments by Claus Hedegaard, 8. 12. 2007)More details on this locality in the caption of https.//www.mindat.org/photo-1066061.htmlApparently owned by Eclipse Metals Ltd. since 2021, see https.//www.eclipsemetals.com.au/projects/ivittuut-project/ |

Mine |
Vindhyan basin |
A manganese mine started before 1906 mined from a 1000m long orebody. The mine is no longer active.The manganese ores of the Kajlidongri mine consist of massive supergene manganese oxides and Mn-silicate rocks (gondites) belonging to the Jhabua Manganese Belt of the Aravalli Supergroup. The Jhabua Manganese Belt is hosted in deep water sediments.The Jhabua Manganese Belt rocks consist predominantly of various types of phyllites interbanded with either massive quartzites rich in conglomerates and pebble beds or calcareous phyllites and dolomitic marbles. The rocks have been strongly deformed and the folds run parallel to the regional trend. Granites of different periods are present, and one that has intruded into the metasediments in the western parts of the Kajlidongri mines is accompanied by widespread feldspathization. A number of thin manganiferous quartzites and cherts, which carry manganese deposits, occur within the green chlorite-rich or white and grey sericite-rich phyllites.The Kajlidongri mine rocks are metamorphosed to chlorite facies by regional metamorphosis but have (near intruding granites and pegmatites) seen higher temperatures. |

Spodumene pegmatites were prospected in the early 1970s along the flank of the Leinster granite. Moylisha was one of the larger prospects. There are no outcrops, the pegmatites are known from boulders and drill core. The spodumene forms laths up to about 20 cm long, and is usually white, though occasionally has a pinkish tint. The area is now under a dense forestry plantation. Occasional boulders may be found along the tracks. The access point for these is at Irish grid ref. S 923 673. In the course of the prospecting work an occurrence of exceptional cassiterite crystals was found. These are up to 2 or 3 cm across, euhedral and in quartz matrix. A fine example is in the Hunterian Museum (specimen GLAHM 111414). They were traced to a single vein exposed in a trench at grid ref. S 9270 6629. The trench is still visible at the top of a field, but is partly filled in and grassed over. There are no outcrops, nor any sign of cassiterite there now. |

One of many lithium prospects along the flank of the Leinster granite. Most of the Li occurs as spodumene (white laths up to 30 cm long) but this locality is unique in that a pink lithium-rich muscovite also occurs. As with all the Leinster Li localities, there are no outcrops, just boulders along the edges of fields. |

Phosphate-bearing metaquartzites cropping out along the ridge Giogo di Toirano (807 m)-Bric Pagliarina (1213 m)-Monte Carmo di Loano (1389 m), which divides the basin of Varatello stream (Toirano municipality) to the south from the basin of Bormida di Millesimo (Bardineto municipality) to the north.Lazulite is the most abundant phosphate, which appears as blue compact veins, grains, and coarse subhedral crystals embedded in quartzite matrix; intimately associated minerals are frequent apatite (as milky grains and prismatic crystals) and rare brazilianite and palermoite (as colourless microscopic grains). Furthermore, pale yellow grains of gorceixite included in lazulite have been rarely observed. Goyazite, which is almost never associated with lazulite, generally forms colourless to pale yellow pseudocubic crystals in association with prismatic quartz crystals inside small cavities of the host rock. |

In this area are present some Mn mineralizations, represented by quartz and quartz-carbonate veins embedded in Diaspri (jasper) formation of Nucleo Metamorfico Apuano. There are also cm-thick layers of braunite and Mn-silicates, concordant with the main schistosity of the rocks (S1). The importance of this area is due to the significant samples of hollandite and piemontite that are possible to collect here. Besides, scheelite from here represents the second occurrence in the Apuan Alps, after the occurrence cited by Duchi et al. (1993) among the minerals of Calcaferro mine, near Stazzema. Sugilite and serandite are the second reports for Italy, after Cerchiara mine (Borghetto Vara, La Spezia).It is possible to distinguish three kinds of occurrences of Mn-minerals. - Type A. quartz-carbonate veins. In this occurrence there are a lot of species. albite, braunite, clinochlore, hematite, hollandite, muscovite, piemontite, rutile, scheelite, titanite. - Type B. quartz veinlets. In this type of occurrence it is possible to find only nice braunite crystals and small globular aggregates of todorokite. - Type C. braunite lenses. Usually the only mineral present is braunite. Rarely, there are also sugilite, serandite and a carbonate of Ca and Ba. |

This area [which is situated in the municipal territories of Borghetto Vara and Pignone, near Faggiona (Pignone)] is certainly known since 1600, when hematite, associated with Mn minerals, was mined by locals to extract iron. The deliberate mining of Mn minerals started in 1790 and ended after WW II in 1945.It is a manganese and iron ore deposit hosted in Jurassic ophiolitic metacherts consisting of braunite with minor quartz layers interbedded with hematite and quartz bands formed at the condition of prehnite–pumpellyite facies (Lucchetti et al.,1988; Cabella et al., 1998). The ore was produced by precipitation from submarine hydrothermal vents and reworked by turbiditic resedimentation (Cabella et al., 1998). According to Lucchetti et al. (1988), the two very common assemblages of ores are braunite+quartz and hematite+quartz, and mineral assemblages are characterized by Na-clinopyroxene, alkali and sodic-calcic amphiboles, andradite, piemontite, pectolite, ganophyllite, and carbonates. In particular, the compositional variety of Na-clinopyroxene is distinct, which varies from pure aegirine to aegirine–augite with variable Mg, Mn, and Ca contents. The presence of hematite and braunite as the main constituents of the orebody suggests highly oxidizing conditions. The mineralisation at the Cerchiara mine experienced hydrothermal metasomatism induced by diffuse interaction with alkali-rich fluids, which produced peculiar mineral assemblages enriched in Na, K and Li and also provided appreciable amounts of Ba, Sr, Ca and Cu (e.g. Kolitsch et al., 2018). Aluminosugilite (IMA 2018-142, formerly "Al-rich, Fe-poor manganoan sugilite" of Cabella et al., 1990) is one of the representative (Na,K,Li)-rich minerals formed under alkali-rich and oxidized conditions (Nagashima et al., 2020).Furthermore, some minerals (aragonite, serpentine subgroup minerals, etc.) are not related to the manganese mineralisation, although they occur inside the territory of the former mining concession. In fact, they have been found along the left bank of the Rendarena stream, near the eastern border of the mining concession, in small lenses of serpentinite embedded in sandstones, evidenced by stream erosion (Di Lisi, 2011).The Cerchiara mine is the type locality for aluminosugilite, an Al analogue of sugilite belonging to the milarite group. It occurs as aggregates of small prismatic and/or granular crystals; it is pinkish-purple with a pale purple to white streak and a vitreous lustre (Nagashima et al., 2020). This pinkish-purple mineral was originally described as "sugilite" (Lucchetti et al.,1988) in the form of big zoned purple veins of some centimetres height, sometimes interleaved with light-blue richterite veins and braunite. The mineral was later reported as "Al-rich, Fe-poor manganoan sugilite" by Cabella et al. (1990). According to their study, it occurs in very compact aggregates filling veins in the metacherts, and its aggregate commonly contains fibrous pectolite. Chemical heterogeneity of this "sugilite" due to Mn3+– Al substitution was reported in their study. The Mn2O3 and Al2O3 contents range between 1.5 wt% – 6.5 wt% and 5.8 wt% – 9.7 wt%, respectively. They confirmed the significant amount of lithium by means of atomic absorption determination; however, the difficulty to remove very fine inclusions of fibrous pectolite did not allow them to provide a reliable composition. Several other occurrences followed in the last 30 years in the abandoned dumps and in the bed of Rendarena stream, where what is now known as aluminosugilite may form prismatic euhedral purple crystals up to 3 mm in length. In the specimens studied by Nagashima et al. (2020), collected in 1997, aluminosugilite appeared closely associated with quartz and K-feldspar, but close association with pectolite was not observed. Also, these authors observed in some crystals the chemical heterogeneity due to Al-Fe3+ and/or Al-Mn3+ substitutions. The Fe2O3 and Mn2O3 attain up to 5.60 wt% and 4.43 wt%, respectively. Even in such Fe3+- and/or Mn3+-enriched parts, aluminium ions are still dominant among the octahedral cations.At Cerchiara the presence of sugilite proper (Fe3+-dominant) or possible "manganisugilite" (Mn3+-dominant) remains doubtful. In addition to the pinkish-purple aluminosugilite, orange sugilite-like crystals have rarely been found. Analytical data on this orange "sugilite" is presently lacking.The following 10 mineral species occur in the concession but not strictly in the Mn-Fe mine. almandine, dravite, graphite, ilmenite, millerite, pentlandite, pyrope, rutile, sphalerite, titanite. |

Vein |
Elba Island |
Pegmatitic vein uncovered by Sarah Sudcowsky in 2003-2004. The vein yielded good samples of blue-green elbaite (the only one which gave this kind of colour on Elba island), plus a few smaller indicolite tourmalines, pink apatite, 'Lepidolite', albite, orthoclase. Some of its elbaites are popularly known as "The Queen", "The King", "The Knight", and "The Blue Lady". |

Quarry |
Elba Island |
This is the old quarry from where a lot of the best elbaites and tourmalines from Isola Elba, Italy, have been recovered during the 19th century.Grotta d'Oggi (literally, the "Today's cave") is the name given to a site, consisting of a system of five pegmatite dykes, located N of San Piero in Campo near a magnesite quarry in the valley of Fosso Bovalico. The exploitation of the site for mineral specimens by using quarrying techniques began in 1825. |

sanidine ejectum |
Outcrops |
Vico volcanic complex (Vico Lake) |
Sanidine ejecta from a pyroclastic explosive level.Abundant peprossiite-(Ce) has been reported from a sanidine ejectum, found near the road named Strada di Valle Cesate, on the southern fringe of Botte village (Calvario et al., 1993). Peprossiite-(Ce), as aggregates of yellow hexagonal plates, is associated with hematite, black tourmaline, amber-coloured mica, fluorite, monazite-(Ce), thorite, and zircon. These peprossiite-(Ce) crystals contain uranium and a higher amount of thorium, compared to the ones of the holotype from Monte Cavalluccio (Sacrofano). Later studies on these crystals brought about the redefinition of the species (Callegari et al., 2000). Furthermore, the tiny yellow crystals of monazite-(Ce), or better a solid solution between monazite and huttonite, from this ejectum represent the first find of the mineral in its mother rock for Latium (Della Ventura et al., 1996).An interesting find of piergorite-(Ce) has been reported from a sanidine ejectum found along the road named Strada di Valle Cesate (Pucci, 2007). Piergorite-(Ce) crystals from this ejectum are different in appearance from those of the holotype, found at Tre Croci. Their color ranges from amber to whitish; only a few crystals exhibit the typical tabular form of the hellandite-group minerals, while most of them show an elongated, almost prismatic shape and often form L-shaped contact twins on (301-) or multiple twins aligned along a rectangle's perimeter. |

Monte Argentario is a municipality and a peninsula (promontory), located about 35 kilometres SSE of Grosseto. The municipal territories of Monte Argentario includes also three islets lying off the cost of the promontory. Isola Argentarola, Isola Rossa, and Isolotto di Porto Ercole.The promontory, jutting out into the Tyrrhenian Sea, stretches towards the two southernmost islands of the Tuscan Archipelago, Giglio and Giannutri. Monte Argentario was an island in the past, but the sea currents and the Albegna River joined it with the mainland through two so-called tombolos (narrow pieces of land), the Tombolo of Giannella and the Tombolo of Feniglia, which formed the Orbetello Lagoon. The highest point of the peninsula is Punta Telegrafo (635 m a.s.l.).From a geological and mineralogical point of view there are significant differences between the the east-central and the western part of the promontory.The central and eastern part of the Monte Argentario Promontory mainly consists of rocks belonging to two geological units, Tuscan Verrucano (Mid-Triassic metamorphosed continental clastic rocks) and Calcare Cavernoso (essentially a “pitted” calcarous rock of grey colour), with minor occurrences of Palaeozoic metasediments.The western part of the promontory forms a tectonic melange (having affinity with the tectonic pile of the Franco Promontory on the Island of Giglio) comprising a large variety of rock types, many of which are not found further east. The Triassic sequence is represented by psammopelitic Verrucano, dolomitic marble (“grezzoni”) and gypsum ("Burano Anhydrite"). In addition, abundant Triassic calcite marble is present (the marble sequence has been given the local name “Cala Piatti unit”). Interlayered calcareous beds and phyllites are considered as being transitional in facies between pelitic Verrucano and the calcite marble unit. A strongly fragmented ophiolite unit forms a substantial part of the western Argentario melange. Rock types of this unit include ultramafic rocks (mainly serpentinite, locally talc-tremolite rock and pyroxenite), metagabbro, metabasalt, and metasedimentary rocks of oceanic provenance. Furthermore, there are minor occurrences of metasedimentary rocks (siliceous-calcareous rocks, greywacke, etc.).Verrucano rocks contain low-grade metamorphic minerals such as pyrophyllite, sudoite, chloritoid, and Fe-Mg-carpholite (Theye et al., 1997; Jolivet et al., 1998). These minerals have been used to characterise metamorphism and constrain P-T paths. The discovery of ferro- and magnesiocarpholite (XMg = Mg/(Mg+Mn+Fe2+) = 0.36 - 0.70) demonstrated that the Verrucano sequence of the east-central Monte Argentario had experienced HP-LT conditions similar to those derived from metabasites in the west (Theye et al., 1997). |

The "Filone dei Pastori" is characterized by a network of pegmatitic-aplitic veins crosscutting a granitic dike hosted in altered serpentinites. Such veins locally crosscut each other forming zoned pegmatitic pods with well-developed aplitic "line rock" at the footwall and a miarolitic geochemically high evolved pegmatitic hanging wall. Yellow-green elbaite crystals characterized by large acicular black heads (schorl-foitite), pale blue to pale pink beryl, altered petalite and pollucite, Li-micas, etc. were recently found at this locality. |

Miarolitic gem-bearing LCT pegmatites in the southernmost gully of Vallone del Forcel Rosso between Punta di Forcel Rosso and the northern slope Monte Foppa (2752 m a.s.l.), disrupted in large blocks in an ancient landslide. The main system of miarolitic cavities has been found at an altitude of about 2220 m.This find represents the first discovery of a gem-bearing LCT pegmatite in the Alps. Discovered by Mr Giancarlo Celio, a local collector, in November 1999. The pegmatite field is hosted in the thermo-metamorphic contact aureole between the Adamello pluton and the surrounding sediments. The pegmatites dykes are sub-horizontal and hosted in meta-sandstones enriched in accessory tourmaline. The larger veins are up to ca. 1.5 m in thickness, and some tens of meters long. Miarolitic cavities are not common, but they can be locally abundant, with a diameter achieving several decimetres in length, at the coarse-grained cores of the veins. |

Granite quarry located between 800 and 860 m at the foot of Cima di Mezzogiorno, on the right side of Vanoi Valley, near the village of Pralongo and in front of the Pralongo copper-lead mine (Valparoline mine).The quarry exploits a medium-grained biotite granite of the intrusive mass known as "Granito di Caoria" (Lower Permian, 274 Ma), a satellite body of the Cima d'Asta pluton. The quarry is currently owned by the Grisotto brothers.Minerals are found in small miarolitic cavities or in pocket-shaped, decimetre-sized cavities inside aplite and pegmatite dykes, which irregularly cut the granite mass. |

Procchio is a village in Tuscany, central Italy, administratively a frazione of the comune of Marciana, province of Livorno.Procchio is located on Elba Island and it is about 10 km from Marciana.In the Procchio area pegmatitic dykes are present; the paragenesis and the possible crystallization stages seem to evidence a forming temperature lower than the one recorded in the pegmatitic dykes within the monzogranite of the San Piero in Campo area. The scarce alteration of the minerals seems to indicate a weak pneumatolytic and hydrothermal stage. Pegmatitic dykes are embedded in rocks of Complex IV; they are thermometamorphic rocks (cornubianites/hornfelses, marble, ...). |

Pegmatite |

Elba Island |
Discovered in 1991 by mineral collectors; located 50 meters SW of La Speranza.Filone Rosina is an aplite-pegmatite dyke 1.5-2.0 m wide, showing complex asymmetric zoning with an aplitic Na-rich footwall and a coarse-grained K-rich hanging wall. It contains many large pockets rich in accessory minerals, including schorl, elbaite, spessartine, blue and pink beryl, petalite, pollucite, and (Nb,Ta)-oxide minerals. In the upper part of the aplitic zone of the dyke, there is a medium-grained phase rich in small miarolitic cavities lined with small crystals of quartz and feldspars. Projecting into these cavities are acicular and hairlike crystals of foitite. Associated minerals with foitite are biotite, colourless and blue beryl, cassiterite, columbite-(Mn), euxenite-(Y), ilmenite, zircon, and zeolites (mordenite and altered laumontite). In some of the cavities, the foitite needles can be observed growing directly on and in crystallographic continuity with coarsely crystalline tourmaline. Fibrous foitite only develops as an overgrowth on the analogous end of the crystals (consisting of schorl), and the antilogous end consists of coarsely crystalline schorl-elbaite. |

Late Paleozoic metasedimentary manganese ore hosted in Sambagawa metamorphic rocks.Al- and Mn-rich sugilites have been reported from the Furumiya mine (Hirowatari & Fukuoka, 1989). Their chemical compositions possibly correspond to aluminosugilite (Nagashima et al., 2020) and "manganisugilite" [='Unnamed (Mn3+-dominant analog of Sugilite)'] based on the ratios of the A site cations such as Al, Fe3+ and Mn3+. The Al2O3 and Mn2O3 contents in Furumiya sugilite reach 5.364 wt% and 7.84 wt%, respectively. |

Loose blocks of aegirine-syenite in an orange orchard. Collecting prohibited.The Iwagi Islet contains metasomatic rocks which are the type locality of four Li-bearing minerals. The metasomatic rocks in the area are classified into the following types based on the major mineral assemblage, from the initial host rock to the inner part of metasomatism.(1) the original coarse-grained granite (quartz + microcline + plagioclase + biotite),(2) albitized granite (microcline + albite + quartz + biotite ± aegirine ± ferro-ferriholmquistite),(3) quartz albitite (albite + quartz + microcline + aegirine),(4) hedenbergite albitite (albite + quartz + microcline + hedenbergite + andradite),(5) sugilite albitite (albite + sugilite + aegirine-augite),(6) katayamalite albitite (albite + aegirine augite + katayamalite + sugilite); and(7) murakamiite-bearing albitite (albite + sugilite + aegirine augite + murakamiite + pectolite + katayamalite)These types of metasomatic alteration occur on the scale of centimeters to meters.

Cobalt-bearing black crusts form films and crusts cementing pebbles in a conglomerate. Mined in ancient times to produce blue ceramic glazes for Seto pottery. Samples of this conglomerate are distributed worldwide in systematic or species collections, generally as "asbolite", although chemical analyses show that it is cobaltoan lithiophorite, not asbolane. |

The locality-name Ambatonapetraka refers in the literature to a small numbers of pegmatite dikes of complex type (LCT) that has been worked for gem tourmaline situated N of the village Ambatonapetraka. These dikes are located in the northern part of the Sahatany Pegmatite Field. This is the same locality that Lacroix (1922) refers to as the Miandrarivo pegmatites (and also as Antsofimbato), and by Guigues (1954) as Antsofimbato IV. It is located about 500 NV of the Antsofimbato pegmatites. The pegmatite dikes is hosted in an altered sillimanite-garnet-mica schist (Rakotoarison 1964). The pegmatite is strongly kaolinitized.Rakotoarison (1964) locality nr 1. Ranorosoa (1986). P28 and P29. |

The Ampasibitika Intrusion, located around the village of Ampasibitika at the southeastern coast of the Ampasindava peninsula in the northwestern part of Madagascar, is a part of the Cenozoic Ambohimirahavavy alkaline complex (Estrade et al., 2014). The intrusion consists of peralkaline granitic dikes (fasibitikite) intruding mudstone and limestone of the mesozoic Isalo Group.Most of the minerals listed are found in dikes peralkaline granite of different variation, the most known is a rare-metal taxitic or foliated aegirine-riebeckite granite, a rock A. Lacroix (1922) named "fasibitikite".A Russian funded Soviet Geological Mission was prospecting in the area between 1988 and 1991 ("Ampasibitika prospect"). Around 2011-2014 (?) the Ampasibitika Intrusion was explored by the Tantalus Rare Earths AG. |

The Anjanabonoina pegmatites are famous for their large and multicolored tourmalines. Located 42 km WSW of the town of Betafo in the central highland of Madagascar.These pegmatite dikes outcrop at a hill (with an elevation of about 1,400 meters) 2.5 km east of Mount Ikaka and are emplaced in a complex environment characterized by paragneiss, marble, and orthogneiss of the Neoproterozoic Itremo Group, of medium metamorphic grade. The subhorizontal bodies of pegmatite are strongly zoned. The metasedimentary rocks hosting the pegmatitic dikes locally show extensive contact-metasomatic phenomena. Abundant tourmalinization extensively affected schist and quartzite units, with schorl-dravite replacing up to 30% of the rock volume. Veins of quartz, dravite-schorl, and danburite are locally present in metasedimentary rocks close to the pegmatites, and marble is transformed into skarn (De Vito et al. 2006). |

Pegmatite |
Ankaratra Volcanic Range, Fianarantsoa Province, Sahatany Pegmatite Field (Mt Ibity area) |
A complex type LCT pegmatite hosted in a metadolomite worked for gem tourmaline, spodumene and beryl from the beginning of the 20th century.Located near the village of Ambatolampy, about 35 kilometers south of Antsirabe, and in the Manandona Valley, south of the Ibity Massif (Mt. Ibity) in the central Highland of Madagascar.It is one of the most famous pegmatites in the Sahatany pegmatite field, but administratively, the locality is located just outside the border of the Vakinankaratra Region and the Antananarivo Province (where the Sahatany Valley and most of the other localities in the pegmatite field are located).The pegmatite is a steeply dipping dike which measures 350 m x 1,2 m.Notes on the mineral list.- Some londonite-rhodizite specimens from the Antsongombato gem mine were sold as coming from Antandrokomby.- Nizamoff et al. (2000) and Webber et al. (2002) have shown that tourmalines from the miarolitic cavities at the Antandrokomby are members of the elbaite-schorl series with significant Mg and Ca content, and not liddicoatitic. |

Kaolinitized granite pegmatites hosted in mica schist worked for gemstones (tourmalines, beryl). The locality often named Antsofimbato consist actually of 4 different pegmatite quarries named Antsofimbato I, II, III and IV respectively. (The Antsofimbato IV is not identical with Guigues Antsofimbato IV which = Ambatonapetraka). These are situated close to each other between the village Ambatonapetraka and Mt. Antsofimbato, in the NE part of the Sahatany pegmatite Field, S of the town Antsirabe in the main highland of Madagascar.The main quarry is located about 500 SE of the Ambatonapetraka pegmatites.The bityite, chrysoberyl and magnesiotaaffeite-2N’2S has only been reported from the one of the pegmatites, designated P30 by Ranorosoa (1986) and Antsofimbato IV by Rasoanaivo et al. (1983). This pegmatite (Antsofimbato IV) was found and researched by "the mission géologique soviéto-malgache" in 1983 (Rasoanaivo et al. 1983).Raktoarison (1964) locality nr 2. Ranorosoa (1986).

Antsongombato gem mine refers to a small area where several LCT pegmatite dykes (of Danburite subtype) have been worked for gems, mostly red tourmaline and yellow londonite-rhodizite. Famous for its large (up to 7 cm) yellow crystals of londonite-rhodizite and for being the type locality of schiavinatoite. The locality is situated on the north side of Manentoakoho, near Andohasahakambana, 4 km ESE of the small village Antsentsindrano which is situated 25 km southwest of Mahaiza (a relatively easily accessible marketplace) and south of the town of Betafo in the central highland of Madagascar.French colonists started mining here for red tourmaline at the beginning of the 20th century. It was abandoned in the 1930s. Later, in 1964-1965, a French colonist mined here, mostly for rhodizite specimens. In 1998, after thorough investigations in the area, the Malagasy company "Pyramide" started specimen mining here, especially for rhodizite-londonite specimens. Many good quality specimens were then recovered. The largest and best specimens of rhodizite-londonite came from one dike which measured 400 m long and 10-60 cm thick (Laurs et al 2002). In January 2001 the Pyramide company ceased their activities in the area. The area is still being worked at a much smaller scale for mineral specimens. |

Ankaratra Volcanic Range, Antananarivo Province, Sahatany Pegmatite Field (Mt Ibity area) |
A complex type LCT pegmatite, elbaite subtype.Estatoby (Antanetinilapa) pegmatite/quarry is situated on a small hill behind the village Antanetinilapa east of Mt.Ilapa, south of a small affluent to the Sahatany river on the western side of the Sahatany river in the NE part of the Sahatany Valley. The local population calls the very quarry today "Estatoby", but the name known in literature is Antanetinilapa (Malagasy place names often changes).Minerals, especially bityite (found here at the end of 1980s), are often mislabeled as coming from the Ilapa pegmatites (higher up in SSW direction). This is another locality nearby, but totally different from Antanetinilapa. So far bityite has not been reported from Ilapa. Some recent literature also wrongly spells the name of this locality as "Antanety ny Ilapa" probably because of a misunderstanding of the Malagasy language.In 2012 a large pocket with polychromatic tourmaline were discovered, including one specimen 26 cm long weighing 4.6 kg, another one 5.2 kg. A total of 70 kg of crystals were recovered from the pocket. EDS Jeol electron microprobe analysis of several fragments of tourmalines from this find gave a significant amount of Ca and F, but only a limited amount of Na, confirming that fluor-liddicoatite is dominant in these crystals (Pezzotta & Praszkier 2013). |

An alluvial gem gravel deposit discovered in 1998 naer what is now a town, Ilakaka Be. One of the largest sapphire deposits in the world. It is located close to the route national 7 going to Tulear, in the Horombe region in the southwestern part of Madagascar. A large number of new gem deposits of the same character has also been discovered in the area around Ilakaka and further southwest in the Sakaraha area. There is also a third district near Bezaha close to the Onillahy River 118 km southwest of Ilakaka.NOTE. the name "Ilakaka" in the earlier litterature refers not only to the Ilakaka deposit, but also sometimes to the whole gem deposit area. |

Lac Alaotra is situated about 180 km NE of the capital Antananarivo and is the biggest lake in Madagascar. Several mineral localities are found around the lake. In general, the localities west and northwest of the lake belong to the Amparafaravola District and the localities east and south of the lake belong to the Ambatondrazaka District . Several LCT pegmatites of the Beryl-Columbite subtype are located east of the lake, and LCT pegmatites of the Chrysoberyl subtype southeast of the lake.Minerals from these localities has often been brought to the market in the town of Ambatondrazaka. Thus minerals from this region are often labelled "Ambatondrazaka" or "Lake Alaotra". For chrysoberyl specimens see especially the localities Andreba, Ambatosoratra, Masiadrivotra and Ampanorana Est . |

Pegmatite |
Ankaratra Volcanic Range, Antananarivo Province, Sahatany Pegmatite Field (Mt Ibity area) |
An elbaite-subtype granite pegmatite hosted in a dolomite marble and an Mg-rich, calc-silicate rock.One of the most famous of the more than 100 pegmatites in the Sahatany Pegmatite Field. It is situated in a ravine about 2 km W of the village Ihasy in the Sahatany Valley, about 25 km SW of the town Antsirabe. It is sometimes labeled as "Manjaka, Mt. Ibity". Mt. Ibity or the Ibity Massif forms the eastern border of the Sahatany Pegmatite Field. Duparc et al (1911) and A. Lacroix (1911) erroneously called the locality "Ampakita" (Bulletin de la Société Française de Minéralogie, 34, 131-139). The locals now refer to the site as "Sahananana". A complex LCT pegmatite is hosted in marble and has been worked for gem tourmaline since the beginning of the 20th century. The pegmatite body is now exhausted. A large number of minerals has been found, mostly in the many miarolitic cavities in the pegmatite. |

A beryl- and phosphate-bearing pegmatite worked for beryl and columbite-tantalite, located at the Marivolanitra Hill close to the Manambazaha river, 10 km N of Ampandramaika. Large masses (weighing over 100 kgs) of triplite with many other phosphates were found here. In 1972 it was reported that the pegmatite had produced about 400 tons of beryl (including a single prismatic crystal that weighed 25 tons) and 3 tons of columbite-tantalite. Apart from the main pegmatite, about 12 other pegmatites have been found in the area nearby. |

1. The type material of fluor-liddicoatite (originally described as liddicoatite, Dunn et al., 1977) was found in soils somewhere near Antsirabé city. The exact locality is not known. It may be some of the LCT pegmatites in the Sahatany Pegmatite Field about 25 km SW of Antsirabe city, or the famous Anjanabonoina or nearby pegmatites.2. Scandian ixiolite was also reported by von Knorring & Sahama (1969) from an undisclosed locality near Antsirabe. The exact locality is not known. It may be one of the pegmatites in the Sahatany Pegmatite Field |

Gem mining in a granitic pegmatite 4-6 meters wide with a length of 200 meters. Noteworthy as the type locality of pezzottaite.Located in the northern part of the Ampandramaika-Malakialina pegmatite field in the central highland of Madagascar, about 140 km south of Antsirabe.The pegmatite is hosted by marbles belonging to the Vohimena group. Mining started here at the beginning of the 1940s by French colonists, and in November-December 2002 a large cavity containing multicolored tourmaline and deep pink crystals was discovered. The deep pink crystals, which were first designated "raspberry" beryl (béryl framboise), were later shown to be a new mineral species, pezzottaite (Laurs et al. 2003). |

A complex type LCT pegmatite, tending to elbaite subtype, that has produced many good polychromatic tourmalines. It is situated just SW of the confluence of the Ampahitra with the river Sahatany in the Sahatany Pegmatite Field, SW of the town Antsirabe in the main highland of Madagascar. It was described by A. Lacroix (1922) by the name Ambalaroy, a name that is not in use today. This locality should be distinguished from Tsarafara Sud (=Ankadilava) that is situated some hundred meters from here. A flood washed through the locality in the 1980s and swept away all the debris.Rakotoarison (1964) locality nr 16 (Map coordinates. X= 672,750 Y= 454,350) |

A complex type LCT pegmatite (elbaite subtype) that in the 1980s and 1990s produced many very good samples of polychromatic tourmalines and cookeite crystals. It is situated just south of Tsarafara Nord, an older quarry, SW of the confluence of the Ampahitra with the river Sahatany in the Sahatany Pegmatite Field, SW of the town Antsirabe in the main highland of Madagascar. The locality consists of very long deep and dangerous tunnels, some said to be over 20 m long. The locality was also given the name Ankadilava ("at the long ditches/trenches") at the end of the 1990s. |

A complex type LCT pegmatite, known for large tabular crystals of pink beryl, a yellow Mn-rich variety of tourmaline called "tsilaisite". It is situated south of the quartzite Ibity Massif (Mt. Ibity), on the northern side of Mt. Tsilaizina, in the Sahatany Pegmatite Field south of the town Antsirabe in the main highland of Madagascar. The pegmatite is hosted by Proterozoic metapelites.Rakotoarison (1964) nr. 58 (Map-coordinates. X= 659.125 Y= 459.950).Note. Minerals originating from Antandrokomby (especially londonite-rhodizite and small crystals of pigeonblood-red elbaite-schorl etc) have been sold at markets in Sahanivotry and Antsirabe (especially in the 1990s) as coming (erronously) from Tsiliazina. |

A gemstone and specimen mine in pegmatite. Active in early 1972 under the supervision of Bill Larson and John McLean, perhaps under the banner of Pala International. More details may be forthcoming of earlier and later periods.The mine has developed as a single pit in one of several parallel, NE-SW trending pegmatites that are well-exposed in a plateau west of the Rancho Los Pocitos area. The plateau is deeply dissected by some deep, structurally-controlled canyons which join the generally westward-trending drainage in the area. Many of the pegmatite bodies are exposed in the canyons. The Socorro Claim is in this same geographic and petrologic locale, and according to Sinkankas (1964), is semi-contiguous with the Pino Solo locale to the Northwest. |

Mine Information. Naica began operations in 1794 and was taken over completely by Grupo Peñoles in 1955. The underground mine is serviced by a number of shafts, declines, and spiral ramps. Processes are highly automated. Ore is crushed underground and transported to the surface by conveyer.Water is the big challenge for the mine; 60,000 l/min is pumped out to avoid flooding. The groundwater is 110 m below the adit level. production when the mine flooded in 2015 was up to 900m below that. Currently (2021) the mine appears to be moving slowly back towards production, but the ramp-up is expected to take several years.Geology. The mine is situated on a structural dome measuring about 12 km by 7 km. Country rock is a thickly bedded Cretaceous limestone. The ore deposits occur in limestones of the Finlay, Lagrima and Benigno Formations (Aurora Group, which is over 1000m thick. The limestone sequence may be overthickened by thrust faulting. Alteration of the limestone is typically limited to a few centimeters to 8m of recrystallization or marbelization. Overlying the Finlay limestones are calcareous shales of the Benavides Formation and limestones of the Lorna de Plata Formation. Virtually no alteration or mineralization extended through the Benavides, suggesting that it formed an effective seal on the system that caused the orefluids to spread out laterally below it-creating near-surface orebodies with a pattern like the roots of an inverted tree. Hydrothermally altered Tertiary (30.2 Ma) felsites occur as thin discontinuous dikes and sills that localize the ore and cut the limestone. These coalesce to the west and ultimately merge into a granitic stock west of the historic part of the mine.The deposit consists of mantos and chimneys, but unlike most replacement deposits in Mexico where mantos and chimneys are distinguished by their geometry, the usage at Naica is confusingly based on composition. Mineralized skarns, consisting of calc-silicates with disseminated sulfides (originally found as flat-lying geometric mantos) are referred to as mantos, whereas the massive sulfide bodies are referred to as chimneys. [This confusing terminology is explained at the beginning of every publication on Naica...a clear indication of its misuse!). Massive sulfide bodies (of many geometries) occur along the sides and tops of the skarn bodies and as true chimneys and mantos extending away from the skarns. ALL massive sulfides can be traced to skarn, and many of the skarns are cored by felsite dikes which were replaced by first calc-silicates and later sulfide mineralization. These felsites thicken and coalesce to the west and lead ultimately to the granitic stock that drove the system. The granitic stock is weakly mineralized and has increased copper values in the skarns that flank it.The area is cut by 3 main faults, and the ore is found between these structures. Generally, the sulfides are controlled by the fractures and the skarns seem to be localized by the dikes. While mineralization is largely structurally controlled, the geometry of certain sulfide bodies indicates that some limestone horizons are more favorable for mineralization. Post-mineralization faults are sometimes lined with large (up to a few meters) gypsum crystals.Sulfide minerals are mostly pyrite, galena and sphalerite with lesser amounts of chalcopyrite, arsenopyrite, pyrrhotite, matildite, kobellite-tintinaite and molybdenite. Scheelite occurs in economic concentrations. Fluorite, quartz, adularia and calcite seem to be in part contemporaneous with the sulfides but also occur as crystals in vugs in the sulfide and silicate ore. The ores show the kind of complex repeated paragenesis typical of large, long-lived skarn-replacement systems, The ores are gold, silver, lead, zinc, and much smaller amounts of copper and tungsten. Mercury was historically recovered from some of the near-surface gossansFour major caves with gypsum crystals have been found - “Cueva de las espadas” (Swords Cave), “Cueva de los cristales” (Crystal Cave), “Ojo de la Reina” (Queen’s Cave), and “Cueva de las velas” (Sails Cave). In 2000, a cave was encountered while driving a communication tunnel. The cave hosts selenite crystals up to 14m x 2m in length and width, respectively. These crystals formed underwater where the hot and calcium carbonate and sulfides saturated fluids transported through the Naica fault, mixed with colder fluids originating from the surface. It is estimated that the crystals have been growing for about one million years. There is an enormous volume of literature available on these crystals and their growth. |

Complex tantalum-niobium-zirconium-rare earth mineralization spatially and genetically associated with a multiple phase intrusion of alkaline granitoids. The massif is formed by two outcrops. Concentric Southern (with top on Khaldzan Buregtei Ula Mt) and garpolite like Northern one (with top on Ulyn Khuren Mt). In shape the massif resembles a "!". Southern outcrop including Khaldzan Buregtei Ta-Nb-Zr-REE deposit in agpaitic alcaline granites of V&VII intrusive phases. Northern outcrop composed mainly from nordmarkites of I intrusive phase and including Tsakhirin Khuduk Y-Zr-Nb deposit in exocontact metasomatic zone. |

Y-Zr-Nb deposit located in an exocontact metasomatic zone of the Northern outcrop of the Khaldzan Buragtag alkaline massif. The deposit is represented by two linear ore zones (Western and Eastern), located at some northern foot of Mt. Ulyn Khuren and as a stock-like body on the northern flank. Ores of this locality are composed of carbonate-amphibole-quartz-epidote metasomatites with disseminated zircon and fergusonite mineralization. These metasomatites are superimposed on alkaline granite pegmatites and stockworks. |

As for the available info, sparse pegmatitic dykes should be present in the area likely related to a Miocene aged granitic magmatism. Host rocks could be the Beni Bousera ultramafic complex and related gneiss belonging to the so called "Lower Septides" (nappe?).As far what is known just artisanal excavations are ongoing at present |

Gem mining area. The third place in the world with gemmy cuprian elbaite, "Paraiba tourmaline". Another occurrence of such tourmaline is in the "Maraca area".The Paraíba-type tourmaline deposit is located near the eastern border of the Alto Ligonha pegmatite district, adjacent to the village of Mavuco in northeastern Mozambique.An approximately 3 km² area has been mined for the tourmaline, which is hosted exclusively by secondary deposits (paleoplacers) buried beneath as much as 5 meters of soil. |

Alto Ligonha Pegmatite Field |
The Morrua deposit covers an area of 0.8 km² close to Rio Melela. Pegmatites hosted in amphibolite are exploited in large-scale mining for Ta and gem minerals. After Schappmann (2005) the pegmatites are of 4 types. Type 1. Microcline-pegmatite. Type 2. Microcline-albite pegmatite with spodumen. Type 3. Albite-cleavelandite pegmatite with spodumene, 'Lepidolite' and sparsely pollucite. Type 4. Spodumene-'Lepidolite'-cleavelandite pegmatite with pollucite. |

Pegmatites are heterogeneous, strongly fractionated, with high Li and Ta contents and extremely high Cs contents. According to the classification of ČERNÝ & ERCIT (2005), the Namacotche granitic pegmatites belong to the Rare Element (REL) class, REL-Li subclass, complex type and spodumene - 'Lepidolite' - elbaite subtype. At the major pegmatite body exposed at the main open pit, the pale colored gemstones, morganite (pink Cesian-beryl), kunzite-triphane (spodumene) and elbaite(tourmaline), are hosted in dilation cavities (tension gashes), predominantly at the inner intermediate zones. |

In the lowlands of Dattaw and on the adjacent ridge at Dattaw-pyant (Plains of Dattaw) as well as in the small creek Dattaw-chaung (Dattaw Creek) flowing downhill many gems are recovered from eluvial and alluvial deposits. In 1998 there were 3 joint ventures working in small-scale, open-pit schemes at Dattaw-pyant. In 1999 gem mining operations expanded producing mostly small size rubies and few sapphires from the alluvium. The gems were recovered after washing the byôn at the nearby small creeks flowing down the ridge. Gem mining ceased in 2001. Further north of the ridge 2 joint ventures are mining the alluvium in open-pit mining schemes producing ruby, some sapphire (near colorless, purple, blue), lapis-lazuli, sodalite and hackmanite, green/blue apatite, danburite, pink scapolite, cat's eye scapolite, diopside, cat's eye diopside, moonstone with golden sheen and zircon associated with spinel. - Ted Themelis (2008) Gems and Mines of Mogok |

This mining area was known before the 1970s. It is situated about 8 km from Mogok town, between Dattaw in the south-west and Pein-pyit village in the north-east. It is close to the Mogok-Momeik road, forming a natural basin where many gems have accumulated. Another mining area is situated at the base of a marble faulted scarp in contact with garnet-bearing gneiss; leucogranite rocks and several skarns are also known in the same area. For many years gems have been mined in the loos (loo-dwin) situated in the adjacent hill. In 2001 these mines produced mostly spinels (60%), near-colorless, greenish-blue, purple and other colored sapphires (10%), rubies (5%), other gemstones (25%). In 2004, most gems mined were blue or blue/green sapphires, fewer of fine quality; also some rubies. Other gems found iclude quartz, tourmaline, moonstone, near-colorless to yellowish and greenish chrysoberyl, danburite, topaz, zircon, diopside, fibrolite, amblygonite/montebrasite and andalusite. Vivid green grossular suitable for cutting brilliant gems below 2 carats were also recovered. Most of the gems are found in sandy byôn using open-pit mining methods. Blue and blue-green sapphires, some milky-silky are also found in the alluvium and they are similar to those found at Pyant-gyi. Some of these sapphires are suitable for heat-treatment to enchance their color and increase their transparency. Rubies and spinels are found in the adjacent primary marble deposits. - Ted Themelis (2008) Gems and Mines of Mogok |

Pink gem spinel and star sapphire. The area was known before the British annexation of Burma (1886). The current mining area is situated NE of the Mandalay-Mogok road, adjacent to the Karen village of Kabaing. Granite microgranite is the principle rock. In 1999 SE of Kabaing village several joint venture mines were in operation, using mechanized open-pit and myaw-dwin mining methods, producing blue sapphires and some rubies of all qualities. One of the mines (U-Soe-Myint-Tun Private Mine) was in continuous operation since 1996, producing ruby, blue and fancy-colored sapphire, quartz (citrine, amethyst, six-rayed star rose-pink quartz, chalcedony) and other gems. Of all corundum recovered about 20% were small size rubies of good quality; 80% were mostly blue sapphires of cabochon grade and fewer of faceting grade. Rubies and sapphires up to 10 ct were often found but they were opaque and excessively flawed. The largest blue sapphire found at Kabaing was a 502-carat prismatic crystal. - Ted Themelis (2008) Gems and Mines of Mogok |

The Le-U-le-taw (Farm of Le-U) mining area stretches from the NE (22°56'33"N. 96°31'28"E. 1,130 m ASL) to the SW (22°56'24"N. 96°31'36"E. 1,110 m ASL) covering a considerable area. Cabochon and faceted-grade rubies of all qualities, often exceeding 5 ct are recovered from the alluvium. Bi-colored tourmaline, moonstone, quartz, topaz, danburite, star ruby (usually small in size) and spinel are frequently found. In September 2001 the mines were closed. - Ted Themelis (2008) Gems and Mines of Mogok |

The locality covers the northeastern part of the Mogôk valley at the base of Oak-saung-taung. It is a secondary deposit, a large basin where numerous gems originated from the hills of Dattaw, Oak-saung-taung and Hta-yan-sho were accumulated on the basin floor. By the end of 2004, after most of the alluvium was mined out, the mining operations continued at the skarns and at the marbles lying at the bottom of the pit, where rubies and spinels are found in the primary rock comprising different types of marble; other gems are found in the skarns. Mining is performed using myaw-dwin and large mechanized open-pit schemes. Some translucent rubies are exceedingly silky, although not in sufficient amounts to produce a star. These silky rubies are suitable for heat treatment to reduce or remove their intense amounts of silk, thus improving their transparency and color suitable for faceting. The impurity of rubies is quite high and there is a considerable variety in their chemical composition and in the types of guest crystals found in them, with corresponding variety in the results of heat treatment. Corundums of changing or shifting color can also be found, usually small, with their color changing from greenish under fluorescent light to red/pinkish in incandescent light. - Ted Themelis (2008) Gems and Mines of Mogok |

Gem mining area (literally "Coconut Branch"). Used to be the only locality for painite, until early 2005.The locality is situated in the foothills of the Let-nyo-taung. The principal rocks of Ohngaing are syenite, marble, and gneiss. Rubies and sapphires, small to medium (usually not exceeding 3 carats) of faceting and cabochon grades are mined in lebin (lebin-dwin) and open-pit mining schemes. Good-quality star sapphire, low-quality star ruby, spinel, garnet, amethyst, and schorl are also found in the alluvium. In a small skarn (between gneiss and marble) situated at the edge of Ohngaing village, sinhalite, serendibite, amblygonite-montebrasite, jeremejevite and other rare minerals are found. - Ted Themelis (2008) Gems and Mines of Mogok.Note on the mineral list. The vast majority of painite images displayed here are in fact from Wet-Loo. They have certainly been attributed to this locality based on the erroneous assumption that Ohngaing (being the TL) is the major source for painite. |

The general area is located 58 km NW of Mogok township, encompassing an area of ~36 square kilometers, bordering from 96°12'30"E. to 96°15'45"E. and from 22°55'00"N. to 23°00'00"E. and elevation ranging from 930 to 1,460 m ASL. The occurrence of the sapphires has been known since the 1940s. The principal rocks are leucogranite, biotite microgranite, augite granite, diorite, syenite, ruby-bearing marble, pure marble, diopside marble, calc-silicate rocks, and gneiss.Most of the blue sapphires are large in size, but low in quality and appear more "drier" than those sapphires found at Yadanar-kaday-kadar, Kyauk-Pyat-That and elsewhere on Mogok. The best sapphires from On-dan (with few exceptions) can be marketed as commercial-grade cabochons of low value. Very few sapphires are of good faceting grade. Spinel, almandine, garnet, schorl, and quartz are found in the general area. - Ted Themelis (2008) Gems and Mines of Mogok. |

The initial discovery was around 1993 and the production of gem quality material was sporadic. The main products are the locally called "mushroom" rubellite tourmalines. These fibrous elbaites (Lussier et al., 2008) usually have a black seed and then a mushroom-like termination area more or less developed is possible. Another type of rubellite is present under botryoidal shape - those with a smooth surface that have been analysed turned out as olenite. The tourmalines are associated with quartz, K-feldspar, beryl (aquamarine and morganite), petalite and hambergite.Note. "Kat Chay mine" mentioned in Lussier et al (2008) refers to the Palelni mine ("Kat Chay" is just another transliteration of "Khat Che", etc.). |

Located north-east of Mogok and west from Pyan Pyit. Geologically, the area consists of igneous rocks (leucogranite, syenite) and metasedimentary rocks (mainly spinel-chondrodite marble). These marbles are tightly folded and often intruded by leucogranite and syenite forming contact zones and skarns. Many faults are observed. The Pyant-gyi area forms a natural basin south of Anyant-taung (Hmyaw-taung), adjacent to the primary source of gem quality spinel. Most gems are recovered from the alluvium in the valley floor. Also, on the hillsides, using loo-dwin, open-pit, lebin and letkya-dwin mining methods. Rubies and spinels are found in different types of marble which are broken apart to recover the gems embedded within. The area is characterized by a high concentration of chromium, where chromium-rich minerals such as fuchsite, red spinel, chromite and other minerals are found. High chromium content is noted in blue sapphires and in other gems. Marbles. Mostly spinel, some ruby, scapolite and scapolite cat's eye are found in different types of marble. Fine quality red spinels are often found associated with calcite, mica, and scapolite. Skarn-contact zone. Diopside (colorless or green), scapolite and scapolite cat's eye, fibrolite and fibrolite cat's eye, ruby, sapphire, spinel, andalusite, kornerupine (emerald-green), montebrasite, poudretteite and hackmanite. Secondary. Most gems are recovered from the byôn found in varying thickness (1.5 - 2 meters) in the alluvium, in the loos (loo-dwin) and in letkya (letkya-dwin). apatite (blue, blue-green), aquamarine and goshenite, chrysoberyl, danburite, diopside, feldspar (orthoclase, pink orthoclase, moonstone, sanidine), fluorite and color-change fluorite, garnet (almandine and grossular), johachidolite, hackmanite, montebrasite, pargasite, pargasitic hornblende, poudretteite, quartz, ruby, sapphire (blue, greenish-blue, yellow, yellow/blue), scapolite and scapolite cat's eye, spinel, tourmaline (rubellite, schorl, chrome-green elbaite) and zircon (yellow and green). Most gems found at Pyant-Gyi are spinels. Fewer rubies are also found. It is reported that the largest ruby in recent years was about 80 carats of faceting grade and good quality. Most sapphires are dark blue and blue-green with an undesirable blue/green overall appearance. Some of them are routinely heat-treated to reduce their green color component and improve their appearance. Fine quality blue sapphires are also found but they are quite rare. - Ted Themelis (2008) Gems & mines of Mogok |

The important pegmatite deposit (several pegmatite dykes) has been known since the British period. Historically the deposit produced fine and large size minerals, including topaz, beryl and quartz (milky, rose pink and 6-rayed star quartz) often of gem quality. Other gems found here include amazonite, orthoclase, moonstone, danburite, 4-rayed yellowish-brown hessonite, elbaite (rubellite, green, yellow, yellow-orange). Rubies, spinels and sapphires are also recovered from the alluvium. In September 2001 there were several joint ventures operating the deposit all year around using myaw-dwin and lebin methods to extract gems and minerals from the soft red soil. In November 2003 gem mining was somewhat reduced. - Ted Themelis (2008) Gems and Mines of Mogok |

Literally "Pig Play".It is located east of Sinkwa. Rubies are mined from the alluvium using the myaw-dwin and lebin mining methods. Low quality blue sapphires weighing more than 5 ct are often found in the alluvium. Rubies and spinels are also found in the loos (twisted holes) and in the caves, characterizing the general area. Most of the rubies found in primary rock are dark red and brown-red, signifying the presence of iron and absence of fluorescence in UV light. Heat treatment generally improves the appearance of these rubies. At the nearby contact zone between marble and leucogranite gem quality painite and chatoyant painite crystals are found with ruby or spinel. Other gems found in the contact zone include rutile, diopside, chrome elbaite, schorl, yellowish and yellow-red zircons which may appear bi-colored. - Ted Themelis (2008) Gems and Mines of MogokIn a nowadays (2016) abandoned ruby mine below the summit of Hinthar Taung a primary deposit of painite has been discovered. Recently, the major source for painite is the gravels of a small stream below the road leading to Sinkwa - close to the Yadana Kaday Kadar Mine. |

Phonolite |
Quarries |
NaN |
Two phonolite quarries, the Railway Quarry and the Ariskop Quarry, are located 25 km S of Windhoek, on the road to Rehoboth. The two open pits are less than 1 km apart. The Railway Quarry (west side of the road) has been inactive [in 2011] for the last 10–15 years, whereas the Ariskop Quarry (east side of the road) has been active during at least the last decade and was active in 2011. Most of the minerals, including the type minerals, collected in recent years came from the workings of the Ariskop Quarry. Note that each of the two quarries extracts material from a different intrusion, differentiated by its geochemical features (F. Koller, pers. comm. to U. Kolitsch, 2015).Mineralogy is somewhat similar to that of the Saint-Amable sill (Demix-Varennes quarry), Québec, Canada, the Point of Rocks phonolite in New Mexico, USA and, in part, to that of Mont Saint-Hilaire. The most notable difference between these localities is the extreme scarcity of eudialyte-group minerals at Aris. |

Located 37 km E of Otavi.Discovered in 1850, mining for copper started around 1900. It was operated by Tsumeb Corporation Limited until the 1970s and by Ongopolo Mining as from 1999. In 2006 Ongopolo and the mine were taken over by Weatherly International PLC, a mining house based in London. Soon thereafter in 2007 the mine flooded, was abandoned, and was dormant for several years. In 2015 Namibian businessman Knowledge Katti acquired the town and the mine for 50 million N$ (ca. 2.7 million US $) (period value), allegedly with the intention of re-selling it to the Namibian government at a handsome profit.In November 2021, the Canada-based Trigon metals, Inc announced it had secured $5 million in financing from IXM to reopen the Kombat mine, agreeing to sell concentrate from the mine to IXM for distribution. Mining resumed the next month.Besides copper, there are sizeable deposits of lead and silver. The mine is known for a host of rare minerals, including nambulite and glaucochroite.The compositionally and texturally layered Fe and Mn assemblage is hosted in the dolomite of the Hüttenberg Formation and is always associated with feldspathic sandstone. There is no intra-layer admixture of magnetite and Mn ores. All Mn-Fe orebodies contain interfoliated sandstone slivers and lenticles. The main banded ore minerals are magnetite, hausmannite, hematite, barite, calcite, tephroite, alleghanyite, pyrochroite, and small amounts of pinkish jasperoidal rock. Sulphides such as pyrite, chalcopyrite, and galena are present in small amounts.Mn-ores are fine-grained and polymineralic aggregates with a well-defined internal mineral banding (bandwidth = 1 to 6 mm) of magnetite alternating with the assemblage leucophoenicite-tephroite-Cu and kutnohorite-baryte-barysilite. They occur only in zones of tectonic transposition. In Fe-rich ores, granular magnetite is the main mineral.Changara (2009) suggests that the virtually non-metamorphosed Fe-Mn bodies at Kombat were originally deposited locally in a subaqueous environment at or near the top of the Hüttenberg Formation. The hydrothermal fluids would have migrated up rift faults in the deeper anoxic parts of the Otavi Valley basin, depositing the Fe and Mn as oxide, carbonate, and silicate facies on reacting with the more oxidized surface waters.Note on the mineral list. Red asisite from the Kombat Mine has been erroneously sold as "chubutite" or "lorettoite". |

A phosphate pegmatite rich in secondary phosphates situated on Farm Sandamap North 115, just east of the Usakos-Uis road. It stands out in the surrounding landscape as a quartz capped hill with white quartz scree on the slopes. The farmstead is known locally as Sandamab & in some of the literature the pegmatite is also written as "Sandamab".Initial mining started in the 1920s when cassiterite was mined & this mine was one of the first tin mines in the area. Mining was haphazard following the tin-rich areas & the mine changed hands many times. The last epoch of mining was mainly for petalite. There are large dilapidated excavations on the hill with dumps scattered over the hill slope. Mining ceased many years ago. |

Located west of Etiro (Brabant 68? farm).Although it was mined long before Mr G.H. van der Made acquired the claims Eugene N. Cameron in 1955 described it as the "Van der Made Pegmatite" a name that stuck in subsequent literature. As early as 1910 cassiterite was discovered lower down the valley at Ameib. The first description of the Van der Made Pegmatite is by P.J. Rossouw in FROMMURZE et al. (1942) when it was known as the Erongo Schlucht, a valley that leads from the south west into the Erongo Complex. It is emplaced in Salem Granite which is unusual for Damaran-age pegmatites. It is oriented in a north north east to south south west line with steep dip. It is discontinuous with a total length of 1750m & up to 25m wide & is a typical zoned pegmatite. |

Nache is a small hamlet 1.2 km SSE of Dharapani, perched in a very steep slope of Marsyangdi river valley at an elevation of 2.300 m a.s.l. Landscape is dominated by the high cliffs of surrounding eight thousanders both sides of the deep valley (Annapurna and Manaslu), with pine forest.The zone is conformed by augen gneiss intruded by many pegmatite and aplite dykes.There is some old news about gem-bearing pegmatites close to Naje but the reality is that gem minerals from this locality are not available in the area, nor in Pokhara nor in Kathmandu. It turns that some elbaites were found years ago but in the last several years there has not been any mining activity in Nache. |

Famous epithermal As-Sb-(Au-Tl) deposit with several rare Tl minerals.Allchar ore is a disseminated Au-As-Sb-Tl-Hg mineralization hosted in Triassic carbonates, Tertiary interbedded volcanic tuffs and dolomites, and Pliocene felsic tuffs. Both the Triassic and Tertiary rocks are intruded by hydrothermally altered, porphyritic, subvolcanic rocks.The name Allchar is an acronym consisting of the first syllables of the names ALLatini (brothers, owners of the mining concessions) and CHARteaux (a French engineer who investigated the deposit). The Serbian spelling is Alšar.There are two main orebodies. Crven Dol and Centralni Deo. Crven Dol is in the northern part of the deposit and poorer in Sb, but richer in As and Tl. Centralni Deo is rich in Sb (stibnite) and relatively poor in As (realgar).Mining (on As) started in the 15th century when the Turks ruled this part of the country (Boev et al., 2016). The Allchar mine started in 1877 and continued, with interruptions due to wars, until WWII. After the latter, only geological studies were done (1953-1957; 1962-1965). While the mine was active, the ore was smelted in Freiberg (Germany). Exploration of epithermal gold was done in the early 1990s by the American company Nassau Limited, but the gold content proved to be uneconomic (Percival & Radtke, 1994). In 1987-1993, some adits (such as no. 21) were re-opened to extract lorandite for the LOREX project (Amthauer et al., 2012, and references therein).NOTE. Mineral collecting at Allchar is only allowed with permission from the University of Skopje. The area will be declared a protected site. Several collectors without this permit were arrested by police (situation in 2010).

Road cut |
Oslo Volcanic Province |
Roadcut along RV 40 (former RV 8). The locality consists of several, mineralogically unusual nepheline syenite pegmatites that transect a trachytoidal foyaite. The dikes are usually 10-30 cm thick, steeply dipping, and often rather irregularly cross-cutting. More than 60 different mineral species have been found in the dikes. Because of its complex and scientifically interesting mineralogy, the locality has been protected by law since 1984. |

A small nepheline-syenite dike close to the sea at Lille Arøya [Named as Ober-Arö or Övre Arö by Brögger]. W.C. Brögger first visited the locality in the summer of 1887. Two of the local collectors had here found a mineral which later was described by Brögger as a new mineral and given the name eudidymite. His later morphological studies of the mineral (Brögger 1890) were done on about 25 crystals from the locality. |

Nepheline syenite pegmatite dike in larvikite located on the south-eastern part of Vesle Arøya. Most of the pegmatite was blasted away in the 1890s during search for thorite. The dike can be followed in the east-west direction from the sea shore for a distance of 30 m, but the main part are heavily balsted and partly refilled by debris and garden waste. A description of morphology of the eudidymite and epididymite from this locality was given by Flink (1899). Most of the minerals listed below have been collected from the dump in 1980-2000. |

The Høydalen locality consists of 2 separate amazonite pegmatite dikes, which are situated a few hundred meters apart. The pegmatites are hosted in a Precambrian metamorphosed gabbroic rock. Both pegmatite dikes have been worked as 2 different quarries; the upper and lower quarries. 'Lepidolite' was mined here in the period 1941-43. Occasional blasting during the years has revealed several mineral species. It is the type locality of tveitite-(Y). |

The Evje and Iveland areas are famous for their pegmatite minerals. In old references and on old labels, this area has also been referred to as Setesdalen (Setesdal), which is the valley along the river Otra. Evje og Hornes and Iveland municipalities are the 2 southernmost municipalities (of a total of 5) in this valley. It is approximately 30 × 10 km trending from N to S with more than 400 large (>1000 m3) pegmatite bodies.The pegmatites are enriched in REE and have originated at ca. 600 °C (Müller et al., 2009).Notes to the mineral list.- The monazites found in the Iveland area are most probably monazite-(Ce), but not all localities (monazites) have yet been analyzed (Selbekk et al. 2009).- A study of the black and light micas from the Evje-Iveland district, has shown that the studied dark micas can be classified as siderophyllite and the light micas as ferroan muscovite with less than 1 apfu F. The pink mica as muscovite (Rosing-Schow et al. 2017).COLLECTION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF IVELAND.A gallery with highlights of the collection of the municipality of Iveland (Iveland kommunes mineralsamling) can be found here. http.//www.mindat.org/user-30160.html#2_0_0_0_0__NOTE ABOUT COLLECTING IN THE EVJE-IVELAND AREA It is very important that all collectors respect the Norwegian laws regarding collecting minerals. In Norway, there is a law called the "Allemannsretten". This law gives everybody free access to nature, and it is allowed to pick berries and mushrooms. Picking up a few rocks from the surface is also allowed, but as soon as you start digging or hammering, the Allemannsretten is NOT valid any more. Collectors always need to get permission from the landowner before they can start collecting. Failing to do so, will only deteriorate an already problematic relationship between the landowners and mineral collectors. Some landowners do not allow collecting under any circumstance.The owners of the Mølland quarries, the Ivedal quarries and the Frikstad 4 and 12 quarries do not allow collecting under any circumstance.On the other hand, if you ask for permission, most of the time you will be allowed to collect that day. If you want to collect for more than one day, you need to specifically ask for permission to do so. |

A larvikite quarry that earlier laid at a higher level, where the Sagåsen Quarry is today, also with a large nepheline-syenite pegmatite, but different from the one in Sagåsen.The Saga 1 pegmatite has been worked out and disappeared with the quarry.More than 70 different species were found in the Saga 1 pegmatite, approximately 40% of all minerals found in the syenite pegmatites in the whole Oslo Region.It was especially rich in Be-minerals, with 12 different species.The pegmatite also became famous for huge individuals of certain minerals. biotite - 50-70 kg, leucophanite - several kg, rinkite group crystals - ¾ m in length, thorite - several kg, nepheline - several hundreds of kg, böhmite crystals - 3 mm.The pegmatite was a flat-lying dyke, about 2.5 m thick, and its horizontal extension was about 60 x 120 m. |

Quarry |
Oslo Volcanic Province |
Larvikite quarry located approx. where the Saga 1 quarry was, but on a lower level. A large, nearly horizontal pegmatite vein was exposed in 2003 and produced a large number of both rare and good quality minerals. This vein, similar to the famous vein in the Saga 1 quarry, is still well exposed (situation May 2009, now under water (2011)). The quarry is no longer operating (2016). |

A large Li-rich granite pegmatite mined for opaque pink elbaite (around 2000). Discovered in 1996. The pegmatite is dominated by quartz and feldspar with a zone with pink elbaites. This zone was about 30 cm wide and 10 m long (Raunholm & Bjugn 2000), but the pegmatite can be followed for about 1,5 km. At the elbaite zone, it strikes N30°-42° and dips against NW on 30°-70° (Breivik 2018). It is located just south of the trigonometric point at Tindane (596 m.a.s.l.). |

Chromium-rich eclogite body found as a few small (<5 m) outcrops in a bog close to the lake Nordre Holmevatnet ca. 18.5 km northeast of Tromsø. Belongs to the tectonostratigraphic unit Tromsø Nappe (in Norwegian Tromsødekket) the uppermost part of the Uppermost Allochthon of the Scandinavian Caledonides.Also silicate-bearing carbonate rocks, that contain, i.a., fluorapatite-hydroxylapatite with inclusions of pyrrhotite, anhydrite and dolomite. This apatite-group species probably contains traces of cyanide (CN-) ions (!). |

A village and river valley located east of Nanga Parbat. (Previously part of Diamar district.)In the mid 1990s some unusual blue and yellow-green elbaite specimens were marketed at major mineral shows as coming from "Astor, Pakistan". These specimens may actually be from near the village of Mir Malik, approximately 70 km south of Astor, not far from Azad Kashmir.According to Thomas P. Moore (Moore`s Compendium of Mineral Discoveries (2016) Vol 1 p. 8) Raman spectroscopy at the Univ. of Arizona in 2008 showed the alleged crystals of "Clinoenstatite" to be Actinolite which fits with the observed crystal morphology and cleavages.Reference.

Northern and larger district of Azad Jammu and Kashmir territory. Rough terrain with summits until 6,000m high around the Neelum river and its tributaries.Neelum river enters from India in eastern Neelum District and runs about 200 km to W/SW until joint the Jhelum River in Muzaffarabad, thus a small southern part of Neelum Valley is in Muzaffarabad District. Except for this short length, what is considered Neelum Valley coincides with Neelum District. |

100 square km of nepheline syenite intrusions into Mitu Group volcanics. Vesicular phonolite around the margins. Intense mylonitization on the northeast margin.Alluvial cobbles of rhyolitic glass enriched in Li, B, F, and P. Primary source unknown.Plateau Uranium Drills Unique and Large Lithium Target in Peru. Plateau Uranium Inc. (TSXV. PLU) is pursuing a drilling campaign to define what it sees as potentially one of the world’s largest non-brine lithium deposits in the Falchani target on its 100% owned Macusani lithium-uranium property in Puno, southern Peru. The Toronto-based company commenced drilling its +2 sq. km Falchani target in October 2017, shortly after signing a first access agreement with the Chaccaconiza Community. The assays showed uranium down to 50 metres below surface level with twice the average grade of the company’s preliminary economic assessment (PEA). However, the company says it was even more encouraged by a lithium intersection roughly 80 metres to depth and open for expansion at widths up to 60 metres, grading an average 3,500 parts per million (ppm) lithium. As a result, Plateau's focus for the first half of 2018 is to continue drilling and have an updated National Instrument 43-101 compliant lithium resource estimate by May 2018. Drilling so far has focused on less than 15% of the company's total land package of 910 sq. km. It's one heck of a lithium deposit with a real cherry on the top of a very nice uranium project, quite separate from the lithium, it's not intermingled. It's two separate deposits with both metals able to be mined separately. The company currently has three drill rigs mobilized at Falchani and will drill from 12 platforms. The holes will be 200-250 metres deep. The ellipsoid for the lithium rocks is so large, Plateau doesn't have to space its drill holes less than 150 to 200 metres apart. Unlike most lithium deposits which are found in brine or pegmatite, Plateau's lithium is in volcanic rocks. As a result, the company says the lithium is easy to extract. The PEA includes a resource estimate of 95.2 million measured and indicated tonnes grading 0.546 lbs per tonne uranium for 51.9 million lbs uranium. Plateau would go on to put out a NI 43-101 compliant lithium resource in 2016 of 52 million indicated tonnes grading 0.13% lithium for 67,000 tonnes lithium oxide and 88 million inferred tonnes grading 0.12% lithium for 109,000 tonnes lithium oxide contained entirely within the uranium deposits considered in the PEA. While Plateau still envisions itself as a future uranium producer, it sees lithium as the more important element at this moment. |

Minerals found on the piled vein material of polymetallic ore.Traces of workings are said to occur 200 m east of Mount Zamkowa. This area is also described as being "close to a "forest-lodge". Lis & Sylwestrzak mention a collapsed adit outlet and a funnel of a small shaft.Exploitation was related to the Main vein (Hauptgang), that cuts sericite and chloritic schists. Another veins. Hintermülengang, Dębowa.This and nearby mining localities are sometimes reported, in old literature, as being at / close to Męcinka. |

Hybrid NYF (Nb–Y–F) + LCT (Li–Cs–Ta) pegmatite signature. The U-bearing phosphate is ningyoite or lermontovite. Other species reported as triploidite/joosteite and robertsite/pararobertsite. The quarry is located in the Góry Sowie Block, a tectono-stratigraphic unit that is mostly built of a polymetamorphic metasedimentary-metavolcanic sequence and is situated at the north-eastern periphery of the Bohemian Massif in the European Variscides. The Piława Górna quarry exploits the migmatite-amphibolite rock deposit with over 320 millions Mt of estimated resources for crushing rocks aggregates. |

Place known from the best specimen of Turquoise in Poland.Second Polish occurrence of metamanganolites (after coticules of the Chałupki - Kamieniec Ząbkowicki area) - a case now under study (Kruszewski Ł., Siuda R., Jastrzębski, M., Klęsk, J., Świerk, M., Sierny, W.). The local manganiferous shales studied seem to be similar to some Belgian occurrences, in particular due to their association with turquoise (and other phosphates).The Mn oxides are mainly represented by birnessite and, locally, lithiophorite and jacobsite. Mn silicates are mainly bementite (to be proved soon) and confirmed carpholite. The rocks are clearly enriched in Cu, Co, Pb, Sr, Ga, Y, Sc, and - quite interestingly - Se. The Mn>Fe character is local, with Fe>>Mn zone also studied (Mn as a chalcophanite group species). Yet unconfirmed species include manganite, pyrochroite, rambergite, native copper, and many others. |

A tin mine, abandoned around 1960. Owned by Geomine (Belgium). Located near Barco.Multistage rare-element, volatile-rich microgranite, representing the subvolcanic expression of a high-Na/Li/P/F/REE peraluminous pegmatitic magma. The microgranite is the mixture of two components. a crystal "mush" (quartz, albite, phengite) injected from below through feeder dykes and an overprinting highly evolved component (Li, F, P, Be, Sn, Nb-rich), analog to a rare-element pegmatititic magmatitic component, acting as a lubricant for the ascending "mush". |

Largest feldspar mine in Portugal 4 Km to the W of Almendra. 700 meters long and up to 35 meters in width.The Bajoca mine pegmatite vein is the main body of an open pit exploitation, linked to the Ceramic Industry, although Bajoca mine was a tin mine in the last century. This vein has an extension of 700 meters, with variable thickness between few meters and more than 30 meters. It is clearly intrusive in the metasediments of the “Complexo Xisto-Grauváquico”, showing a general orientation N10º with dip variations between 30º and 45º W. During the research work done in the main vein of the Bajoca mine, was clearly showed the existence of lithium minerals, that occurs as montebrasite-ambligonite and mainly as petalite. The montebrasite-ambligonite appears as accessory mineral, in milimetric crystals. The petalite occurs as microcristaline mineral masses, white in color, or in centimetric crystals with perfect cleavage {001}. Is an essential mineral in the vein hanging wall area, what means that it is considered zoned in terms of lithium, because the foot-wall is almost sterile, with a significant enrichment to the roof zone. These rare element pegmatites are considered by Cerny classification as LCT (Li, Cs,Ta) family. They are of the complex type, as 'Lepidolite' subtype meanwhile the main vein of Bajoca mine is classified as petalite subtype. The worldwide growing needs of these raw materials, could and should be a motivation to the development of a new industry in this region. As we know this region (NE of Portugal) as several problems related to industrial and human desertification. This new industry as special characteristics, showing a smaller environemental impact compared to the anciente exploitations of tin and other ore minerals. They have small dimension in time and space, making this possible with small mining coumpounds, and plants more friendly to the environment. Abstract.

In the Segura mining area tin and tungsten were explored from 1942 to 1953. Granitic pegmatite veins with cassiterite and 'Lepidolite', hydrothermal Sn-W quartz veins and Ba-Pb-Zn quartz veins intruded the Cambrian schist-metagraywacke complex and Hercynian granites.The Segura mining area was constituted by 12 tungsten, tin, lead (and barium) concessions. The mineralizations were explored between 1942 and 1953 by the Segura Mining Company, Ltd. The quartz veins mineralized in Sn-W produced about 100 tons of concentrates with 60% and 12 tons of cassiterite concentrates with 50% wolframite, while the Ba-Pb-mineralized quartz veins produced 525 tons of barite and 211 tons of galena. |

Manganese deposit. Located within the Obcina Mestecăniș Mts."The manganese mines of Oberarschitza and Arschitza-Anna occur high up on the slopes of the Eisenthal, 4 km (2.4 miles) from Jakobeny." (Note. Arschitza is the old German name.)Two adits/workings are mentioned (Theresia, Sahara). But more are actually present.Extremely large quarry, covering ~2.4 sq. km, that seem to be formed due to coalescence of few quarries and galleries (at least 3 evident galleries present, as of 2020).Dolomite exploitation at present (2020).One of many stratabound Mn deposits within the East Carpathian Mn-rich belt. a Cambrian/Ordovician (with greenschist-facies metamorphism in Silurian) island arc complex. Other deposits include. Argestrut, Borca, Broșteni, Cosna, Dadu, Dealul Rusului, Drancani, Oița, Roșu, Sărișor, and Terezia.In terms of structural geology, these deposits belong to the Central East Carpathian basement nappes. At least some of them, i.e., the ones of the Iacobeni area (Arșița, Tolovanu, Argestrut, Dadu, Oița) are within the Putna Nappe (part of Sub-Bucovinian Nappe). In terms of lithostratigraphy, they belong to Tulgheș Group, that is, Lower Palaeozoic metasedimentary/volcanosedimentary sequence. In a more detailed description they are listed under Harghita Fm. (Tg2), a variegated sequence with Mn-rich metacherts / black quartzites.Note. at least part of the minerals listed may, in fact, more concern the nearby Tolovanu (and, possibly, Oița) deposit(s). |

A pegmatite field on the slopes of the Contu valley, a tributary of the Sadu river. Pegmatites are either poorly mineralized feldspar-muscovite pegmatites, or Li- and REE-rich albite-spodumene pegmatites. Host rocks are alternating kyanite-staurolite schists and biotite paragneisses, overlying a migmatitic complex. A iron rich analogue to gatehouseite has been found. |

Carpathian Mountains |
A manganese ore deposit. Includes (i.a.) carbonate-rich ores, and gonditic ores. Very complex genesis, incl. Li metasomatosis.One of many stratabound Mn deposits within the East Carpathian Mn-rich belt. a Cambrian/Ordovician (with greenshist facies metamorphism in Silurian) island arc complex. Other deposits include. Arșița (in Iacobeni), Argestrut, Borca, Broșteni, Cosna, Dadu, Dealul Rusului, Drancani, Oița, Roșu, Sărișor, and Terezia.In terms of structural geology, these deposits belong to the Central East Carpathian basement nappes. At least some of them, i.e., the ones of the Iacobeni area (Arșița, Tolovanu, Argestrut, Dadu, Oița) are within the Putna Nappe (part of Sub-Bucovinian Nappe). In terms of lithostratigraphy, they belong to Tulgheș Group, that is, Lower Palaeozoic metasedimentary/volcanosedimentary sequence. In a more detailed description they are listed under Harghita Fm. (Tg2), a variegated sequence with Mn-rich metacherts / black quartzites.Similar to other Romanian Mn deposits, like Răzoare (in Maramureș), Delineşti (in Semenic Mts.), or Sălciua de Sus (Gilău Mts.).Note. the GPS coordinates are derived from Săbău but they not necessarily ideally fit to those derived from (larger-scale map of) Munteanu et al. Some minerals listed under the Arșița mine may in fact be only found here. |

Located on altitude 2061 m in the middle flow of Aryskan-Astyg-Oi stream in 12 km NNE from Aksug copper deposit. HREE-bearing albitites replacing alkaline syenite (more early intrusive phase) and granite (more later one) massif within diorite massif. Discovered in 1952 and researched in 1953-1959 by trenches and 3 levels of adits. REE+Y2O3 resources were estimated over 30000 t. Here were made first finds of thalenite-(Y) and priorite on USSR territory. |

Russia's largest silver deposit, discovered in 1965 and identified as a precious metals deposit in 1967. It comprises some 30 ore bodies that occur as breccia in fault zones and as veins in a 35 sq/km (13.5 sq. mile) area. The ore bodies are fault-controlled and are as much as 1,500 meters (4,920 feet) long and average 3.2 meters (10.5 feet) wide, as was delineated by drilling and underground development to 600 meters (1,970 feet).The mine was closed in 1995, but is currently being rebuilt through foreign investment. It has the potential to be one of the world's largest lowest cost silver mines, with anticipated production (at full capacity) of 15 Moz silver. Pan American Silver's original 70% interest in the operation has been diluted to 20% following the formation of a joint stock company, Polimetall. This follows irregularities between the ownership of mill assets and mining licenses between KasKol and Pan American. Pan American no longer has any capital obligations to the project and retains a 20% non equity sharing of the operation. Production is now anticipated to begin towards the end of 2001 under the management of a new Russian-Canadian company called Serebro Magadana. This holding company is currently 51% owned by Serebro Dukat, a subsidiary of Canada's Pan American Silver, and 49% by Dukat, a joint venture between Russia's Kaskol and Polimetall.Dukat has proven and probable reserves estimated at 10.55 Mt grading at 755 g/t silver (228 Moz contained silver equivalent). The Dukat mine hosts approximately 90% of Russia's silver reserves. Under the new management, Dukat now plans to produce 16 Moz silver per year, with silver being refined in Russia and not overseas, as Pan American intended. |

Eveslogchorr (1,049 m/3,442ft a.s.l.) is a mountain in the Khibinsky Mountains in Russia. The prominence is 384 m/1 260ft.Includes a natrolite vein on the Southern slope of Eveslogchorr Mt. between Yuksporlak pass and the 1st left tributary of Vuonnemiiok river.This natrolite vein was mined before 1980 and was blasted in 1993.The main part of the material from this vein was collected from the slope, not from solid rock.The natrolite crystals were harmed by frost and show typical pearly lustre as a result of cracking of microinclusions filled with water. |

Tin bearing greisen Na-analogue of batagayite and Mg-analogue of hopeite were also found. Due to erosion, two domes have been exposed on the surface, the eastern and western domes, with areas of 33.7 and 9.7 km2, respectively. The western dome is composed of medium- and coarse-grained andesine granites and granodiorites dated at 137 Ma. The andesine granites of the western dome contain the Kester harpolith. |

Karelian-Kola Alkaline Ultramafic and Carbonatitic Province |
Apatite JSC (joint-stock company) is one of Russia’s main producers of phosphate raw materials for fertiliser manufacture, both in Russia and on an international level. This large-scale mining and processing enterprise has been using Scandinavian mining technology for several years in order to improve production efficiency. Apatite JSC is headquartered in Kirovsk, a town of about 30,000 inhabitants located in the Khibiny Mountains of the Kola Peninsula that is now also a popular ski resort. The company extracts apatite-nepheline ore from mines around Kirovsk and separates the apatite and a nepheline concentrate at two processing plants.Koashva Open Pit is an apatite deposit open pit extraction operation by Apatite JSC. Koashva is located on the west side of Lake Umbozero, approximately 18 km (11 miles) ENE of the town of Kirovsk and 153 km (95 miles) S of the city of Murmansk on the Kola Peninsula. The pit mine works part of an alkaline massif with ultra-agpaitic pegmatites, urtite, as well as foidolites and apatite-nepheline rocks with aegirine-microcline, aegirine-nepheline-microcline, and titanite-aegirine-nepheline veins, and olivine metanephelinite dykes.Nepheline syenite mineralisation on the Kola Peninsula was reported by Ramsay and Har in 1894 although a detailed exploration only started after the Russian Revolution (1917-1922). The deposits occur in alkali syenites within the igneous rocks of the Khibiny Massif. This domed complex, about 370 million years old, is approximately 40 km (25 miles) in diameter. The mineralised occurrences comprise several intrusive phases and within the 1-km-thick second phase of the apatite-nepheline syenite there is a 100-m-thick, 11-km-long arc of ijolite-urtite; the apatite nepheline occurrences are associated with this arc. The deposits dip 35° to 70° and contain 45-50% apatite, 35-40% nepheline, 6-10% aegirine, up to 2.5 % titanite, about 2% titanomagnetite and 1%-25% impurities. Rich ores with a phosphate content of up to 27% make up one-third of the deposits, and poor grade ores up to 10%. A single apatite deposit, lying within +1,050 to –650 m above/below sea level, contains the Apatitovy Cirque (Apatite Circus), Kukisvumchorr, Rasvumchorr Plateau, and Yukspor orebodies. The Koashva and Nyorkpahk orebodies are in the southeastern part of the ore zone and these feature challenging mining and geological conditions.The main minerals mined in the Khibiny are. apatite, nepheline, titanite (sphene), aegirine, feldspar, titanomagnetite. Previously, lovchorrite was mined. |

Kolmozero Li deposit forms part of the Kolmozero pegmatite field and consists of 12 albite-spodumene pegmatite dykes and numerous small occurrences. The largest dykes have lengths of over 1400 m and thicknesses up to 65 m and extend to depths of about 500 m. The pegmatite dykes do not display a mineralogical zoning at this scale of observation and comprise quartz (30–35 vol.%), albite (30–35 vol.%), K-feldspar (10–25 vol.%), spodumene (~20 vol.%), and muscovite (5–7 vol.%). Spodumene is the main host for lithium with 97% of the bulk rock Li2O in the Kolmozero pegmatites, 0.3% is carried by lithiophilite, 0.45% by muscovite, 1.93% by albite and 0.3% by K-feldspar. Beryl and columbite-group minerals are accessory and may have commercial by-product potential as a source for Be, Ta, and Nb. Other accessory minerals include spessartine, apatite, rare lithiophilite, triphylite, and tourmaline. Internal structures of the dykes are very simple where 85 to 90 vol.% of the dykes are composed of medium to coarse-grained quartz, spodumene, albite, muscovite, and megacrystic (blocky) K-feldspar. Individual spodumene crystals can reach up to 1.5 m in length. |

Pegmatite |
Pegmatite |
Middle Urals |
Desilified pegmatite. Site of large find of elbaite (rubellite) around 1900.Abandoned opencast nickel mine in a silicate type deposit. Near the flooded open pit, granitic pegmatites with rich tourmaline and rare-metal mineralization are known.The pegmatites of the Lipovsky field are confined to a brachisynclinal structure sandwiched between three large granitoid intrusions. the Murzinskшy massif is located in the northwest, the Aduysky massif in the southwest, and the Sokolovskii in the east. This pegmatite area is formed by metamorphic rocks belonging to the Murzin Formation of the Proterozoic age. biotite-hornblende gneisses, crystalline schists, amphibolites, marbles and quartzites. They are injected with numerous bodies of ultrabasic and granitoid rocks. Ultrabasic intrusions (dunites, peridotites, pyroxenites) reach a length of 3 km and a thickness of 2 km; essentially olivine rocks are mainly transformed into serpentinites, and on contacts with granitoids - into talc, talc-chlorite and carbonate-talc rocks. Granitoids are very diverse in composition. The most common are biotite plagiogranites and granodiorites that make up lenticular bodies and dikes up to 0.5 km long and up to 20 m thick. Two-mica and muscovite granites in the form of cores up to several hundred meters long are also typical. Leykokratovye granites with tourmaline form dykes with a length of sometimes over 0.5 km. The composition of the vein complex also includes aplites, diorites, quartz diorites, lamprophyres, granite pegmatites. Numerous quartz veins. All these rocks are covered with a cover of loose Meso-Cenozoic sediments. In the Mesozoic time, a nickel-bearing weathering crust appeared on serpentinites, the bodies of gneisses and granites in the upper parts underwent kaolinization and the marbles. Most of the pegmatite bodies of the Lipovsky field have a vein form. Pegmatites with colored tourmaline-elbaite and 'Lepidolite' occur in serpentinites, whereas for the bodies of intersecting gneisses, shales, marbles and granitoids, the absence of lithium minerals is characteristic. |

Intrusion |
Karelian-Kola Alkaline Ultramafic and Carbonatitic Province |
Niva agpaitic syenite intrusion is located 50 km southwest of the Khibiny alkaline complex, central Kola Peninsula. It has been discovered at the end of the 1990s and named after the river Niva, which carries the waters of Lake Imandra to the White Sea at the city of Kandalaksha (Arzamatsev et al., 1999; Arzamastseva & Pakhomovsky, 1999). This intrusion forms a lense-like body, 1.5-2 km in size, that outcrops over an area of 300×200 m on the southern shore of the Imandra lake. Rb-Sr (379±21 Ma) and Sm-Nd (383±58 Ma) isochron ages of the intrusion coincide with the age of the Khibiny and Lovozero complexes.A characteristic feature of the Niva rocks is their extremely high agpaicity and enrichment in Sr, Ba, Y, Zr, Nb, Rb, LREE, and volatiles. The mineral association in the agpaitic syenite is K-feldspar, aegirine-diopside, "biotite", "lamprophyllite", aenigmatite, and shcherbakovite. Isotopic compositions indicate the absence of contamination by continental crust during formation of the Niva alkaline magmas. A depleted asthenospheric mantle reservoir mixed with a slightly enriched mantle component is suggested to be the main source of the Niva magma. A metasomatically altered garnet granulite xenolith from the western contact of the Niva intrusion contains a primary paragenesis of diopside, garnet (Alm56Gro25Py17Sp2) and plagioclase with chemical characteristics similar to those in the granulite suite of the adjacent Lapland zone and lower crustal granulite xenoliths from Devonian pipes in the Kandalaksha area. Additionally, the granulite contains vinogradovite, neptunite, pectolite, and natrolite which partially replace both primary minerals of the granulite assemblage and secondary minerals that were formed during a later regional metamorphism. |

Granite pegmatite. The locality name is better translated as "Olenii Ridge", suggesting a specific location rather than somewhere along a mountainous "range". Olenii Ridge is a small area with several granite pegmatites. Unfortunately, the original pegmatite that yielded the type material for olenite is unknown (Pavel Kartashov and Igor Pekov, personal communications, 2012). The various pink olenite tourmalines which have been sold as olenite are not certainly from the type location and the recently sold specimens may or may not be olenite. |

Contact metasomatic gold-(antimony-tungsten) deposit, hosted in Proterozoic metamosphic rocks (including carbonaceous shales). The deposit was discovered in 1975, and has been mined from an open pit since 1994. Its reserves amount to about 1,000 tonnes of Au, and the ore intersections at depths of over 1,500 m allow forecasting a further increase in reserves |

hythmic-banded aplite-pegmatoid rocks forming lenses in apical parts of late Jurassic subalkali peraluminous Li-F amazonite granite. Alternation of quartz-albite aplite, quartz-amazonite, quartz-micas layers and coarse grained quartz-amazonite pegmatoid layers. The layering is caused by oscillation of physico-chemical parameters during fractional crystallization of the volatile residual saturated Li-F melt together with a liquid immiscibility phenomena. The parental melt of the banded rocks, Nb/Ta-saturated during early stages of crystallization, is the consequence of the removal of interstitial residual melt from the deep part of the intrusion and emplacement into a previously solidified carapace. |

Giant deposit of Y- and HREE-enriched brown coals, in the SE part of the Khankai Massif. Mined from 1968. This is one of two deposits in the area, the other being Luzanovka. The coals are named Spetsugli (for "special coals") as they also comprise (and are especially recognized for being) a germanium deposit. They are also anomalously enriched in Cs, Rb and Sb. The mean Cs content, 30.3 ppm, exceeds for more than one order of magnitude the typical content in coals as a whole. Meanwhile, the maximum content of 57.2 is at once the maximum Cs content in a solid fuel. Rubidium was sorbed (within the further deposit) in clays and Cs in both clays and organic matter. Antimony (suggested to be mineable), with up to 1175 ppm, concentrates mainly in the organics and its behaviour is similar to that of Ge. The coals are also anomalously enriched in As, W and Be.Aberrant, Gd-, Dy-, and even Sm-dominant phases are described by Seredin (1996); see Unnamed (Possible Samarium Chloride) for details.Eluvial sediments overlying kaolinitized Lower Cambrian schists. The schist was intruded by hydrothermally altered basic (alkaline basaltoid) extrusive dikes, thought to be Pliocene–Quaternary, that may have generated or activated saline hydrothermal fluids during intrusion and the accompanying extrusion of basalts.Located between Osimovka and Abramovka Rivers.Beside the listed minerals there are also. a Bi-Te phase, (As,Cr)-bearing iron sulphates, an Fe-Cr intermetallide, a Au-Ag amalgam and merurian gold. |

Karelian-Kola Alkaline Ultramafic and Carbonatitic Province |
The world's largest ussingite body, discovered in 1990. The ultra-agpaitic pegmatite body “Shkatulka” located in the western part of the Alluaiv mountain of the Lovozero alkaline massif was discovered by underground excavations in 1990. Shkatulkalite was found in the marginal zone of the ussingite core of the pegmatite and in the adjacent aegirine zone.An X-ray amorphous phase corresponds (by chemical composition) to the Nd-dominated analogue of abenakiite-(Ce). |

Pegmatite |
Karelian-Kola Alkaline Ultramafic and Carbonatitic Province |
A very large agpaitic pegmatite body discovered in 1996 on the northern flank of the Umbozero mine on Alluaiv Mt. Intensely hydrothermally reworked, extremely Na-rich, CO2-rich and relatively Si-rich pegmatite. Exceptionally large crystals of many minerals are known from the body (for example up to 20 cm long shomiokite-(Y) crystals). |

Weathered pegmatite body discovered by gold washers in 1932. It is located at 3.5 km NE of Svetlyi settlement. At different times the object was explored for piezo-optic quartz, kaoline, and gem stones, but resources of the deposit were not industrial. So up to now this locality is mined only by mineral collectors. |

A spodumene deposit in pegmatite. This deposit (Matrosov and Shaposhnikov, 1988) consists of a pegmatite veins field that contains thick veins that exhibit persistent lateral and vertical trends. The field is more than 1000 m long, and varies from 180 m thick in the northern part to 375 m in the southern part. Pegmatite veins trend sublongitudinally and extend to a depth of 700 m. In the main district the veins extend to 500 m depth. The host rocks consist of Mesoproterozoic marble. The most intense vein zone occurs in the crest of an anticline in the central part of the deposit. Genetically and spatially, the spodumene pegmatite is related to a Paleozoic porphyritic biotite alkaline granite. The length of individual veins is 250 to 300 m, thickness ranges from 5 to 10 to 100 m in swells. |

Valley drained by the River Tavaiok, a 12-km-long affuent of Lake Umbozero.A rock named tawite, mainly consisting of S-bearing sodalite and aegirine with accessories nepheline, albite, microcline and eudyalite, and minor lamprophyllite, arfvedsonite, etc. was recoverd by the Finnish Kola expedition of 1891-1892 at the head of the valley and described by Ramsay (1898). Borgström (1901 and 1903 a, b) provided complete analytical data of the pink to grey white to white photochrome S-bearing variety of sodalite and named it hackmanite in honour of the Finnish geologist Victor Axel Hackman, who accompanied Wilhelm Ramsay in the Finnish Kola expedition of 1891-1892. |

Rare metal Nb-Ta-Zr deposit connected with leucogranitic massif. This deposit (Grechishchev and others, 1997) is hosted in the Ulug-Tanzek pluton composed of main phase of subalkaline biotite granite, quartz syenite, granosyenite, and alkaline granite, and younger felsite and quartz porphyry with anomalous Li, F, Zr, and REE. Quartz-albite-microcline metasomatite with uniform low-grade REE replaces mainly the main phase. The pluton forms an inclined lenticular body that is enclosed by marble that dips moderately the southwest. The pluton is 1900 m long, ranges from 100 to 900 m wide, and extends to a depth of 700 m with no sign of wedging out. |

The Jadar river is a tributary of the Drina river.The mineral jadarite was discovered in samples recovered from a borehole. The deposit was formed in an intramontane lacustrine sedimentary basin.A lithium deposit, one of the largest in the world, was discovered in 2004 and in 2017 the Rio Tinto Group planned to start mining operations in 2023 ("Jadar mining project"; Wikipedia).The Serbian government cancelled all decisions and licences in January 2022, following months of protests by civilians. |

An iron ore mine operated by Assmang which represents one of the largest iron ore reserves in South Africa and in the world, having estimated reserves of 117.5 million tonnes of ore grading 63.7% iron metal.The mine was established in 1964 while is now mainly responsible for supplying iron ore to the local South African market, producing at 3 million tonnes per year.Geologically, the deposit is part of the lower-most unit of the Manganore iron formation and consists of spotted carbonaceous and dark-brown shale containing chert pillows and hematite nodules.The coordinates are those of the entrance to the mine's headquarter facilities. |

A manganese property owned by Associated Manganese Mines of South Africa, Ltd.Note. Sturmanite an approved IMA mineral is erroneously reported from this mine, whilst it is said to be the type locality there must have been faulty labelling as it has never been found since with the associated minerals as described in the original paper whereas at least 5 pockets at Wessels mine between 1978 - 1982 have yielded crystals of similar habit. No specimens have ever been recorded from this mine and it was closed many years before. It is widely believed Black Rock is an erroneous locality and Wessels is the true locality. This has been checked against several references from Cairncross et al and von Bezing (Debbie Woolf).Note. Contrary to the above, a 2015 article wrote that Assmang Proprietary Limited, the owner of the Black Rock Mine (itself is jointly owned by Assore Limited and African Rainbow Mineral Limited) has began a program in 2010 of increasing its operational capacity to 4.6 Mtpa through new and upgraded ore handling infrastructure and the refurbishment and development of new shafts. In 2022 it signed a purchase agreement with Atlas Copco to provide electric MT-420 mine trucks and ST-14 electric scooptrams. |

Kalahari basin |
A high-grade iron ore mine neighbouring the Sishen mine. Currently (2022) part of the Khumani mine owned by Assmang. The mine was previously part of the Bruce, King and Mokaning ("BKM") Project, which refers to the farms on which the iron ore resources are located.Mn minerals are found within Wolhaarkop chert breccia. They are found in the upper portion of the breccia among void-fills. The outer part of the fills consists of norrishite, followed by serandite + albite + feldspar + granular sugilite. The cores of some vugs have armbrusterite and/or fibrous sugilite. There are also unzoned assemblages of similar mineralogy, but with minor kentrolite, strontianite and witherite. Dating of fibrous sugilite yields the age of 620.2 ± 3.3 Ma, thus younger for the Kalahari Manganese Fields assemblages.Moore et al. (2015) mention that borehole AKH49, located in the King farm, contained a sugilite-bearing assemblage within the Wolhaarkop breccia. |

Pegmatite veins occur over some 10 miles between Goodhouse and Vioolsdrift, the longest being over a mile by 50 yards in width.The chief replacement processes are muscovitization, albitization, and lithianization.Furthermore, Bi veins in greisen and highly quartzose pegmatites, and beryl and scheelite in quartz-tourmaline veins.There are also nonpegmatitic deposits of Cu ores, amethyst, and tremolite. |

Mine |
Kalahari Desert |
A manganese mine located in northern Cape Province.The open pit operation exploits low-grade manganese ore, compared to the northerly located Wessels and N'Chwaning mines that exploit high-grade manganese ore.It is the latter that accounts for most of the secondary, collector minerals, as opposed to the low-grade mineralization, hence the Mamatwan mine produces few secondary, aesthetic species. |

A closed manganese mine owned by Assoc. Manganese Mines of South Africa, Ltd. The north-western areas, where mining began, were noted for the presence of exceptional rhodochrosite specimens associated with mainly manganite and drusy secondary quartz. The ore here consisted mainly of the Hotazel Supergroup. Later mining shifted to the southern areas. Here well-crystallized hausmannite, barite, hydroxyapophyllite, inesite, brucite, and celestine were found and rhodochrosite became a rarity. (Extract from Cairncross et al, 1995) |

Pegmatite occurs about 35 km north of Kenhardt, on the portion of N'Rougas Noord, known as Straussheim. there are several very prominent pegmatites and No. 1 forms a hill known locally as Micakop. Mining since 1952 has produced several hundred tons of beryl from the three main pegmatites in the area. Beryl production ceased when Straussheim mine started producing cassiterite. |

A manganese mine located near Hotazel in North Cape Province. Started in May 1973. Hydrothermal alteration of the primary Mn ore produced a wealth of well-crystallised minerals.The Wessels Mine is an underground operation situated 300 metres below the surface. Access to the workings is achieved by means of a vertical shaft and two incline shafts. The nature of the orebody lends itself to a mechanised room and pillar mining method. |

Granite stock intrudes Precambrian schists and phyllite. Two pegmatite veins intrude parallel to the boundary between the granite and country rock. Two other pegmatite veins intrude dolomitic limestone further away. 'Lepidolite' was mined as lithium ore during WW2, but the relatively large reserves of amblygonite were not used. |

Pegmatite dykes and associated quartz veins, emplaced into low-grade metamorphic schists. The pegmatites are mostly of simple quartz-feldspar composition, but also develop into more complex and internally zoned spodumene-bearing variants with accessory columbite-tantalite and cassiterite mineralization. |

There are several little quarries where it is possible to extract samples of pyrite after paying the owner.Ambas Aguas is a small, almost completely abandoned village. You can access it by a track (5.5 km long) from the town of Muro de Aguas. In Ambas Aguas there are numerous outcrops that have been known for over 100 years, which are worked for pyrite, but only for collecting and decorating purposes. They are located along the streams around the area, and occur as they cross Cretaceous sedimentary layers (Urbión Group - Berriasian to Aptian age) that are affected by mineralizing hydrothermal fluids.- West Vallaroso stream- East Vallaroso stream- La Urruñada stream (also called La Orrañuda; Laorrañuda; La Orrañada; Laorruñada)- Las Cañadillas stream in the Aguasala ravine.Most of the area belongs, since 1996, to the mining licence "Ambas Aguas II", derived from the initial licence "Ambas Aguas I" (1994), hence the name "Ambas Aguas 1". You can visit the area and collect pyrites, but only after payment.The crystals of pyrite in the region occur in a wide variety of forms. In the Laorrañuda and Vallaroso streams, close to Ambas Aguas village, the matrix is a light grey shale. Here cubes are common, with deeply striated faces; there are pentagondodecahedra (pyritohedra) with both smooth and shiny faces or striated ones, and all possible combinations thereof also occur. Less common forms are octahedra and diplohedra, combined with pyritohedra and cubes. Also, there are some small twinned pyritohedra in the form of "iron cross", and frequent “pine cone” like groups.In the Arroyo de Las Cañadillas, located midway between Ambas Aguas and Muro de Aguas, the matrix is very dark gray shale. Here individual crystals are striated cubes, striated pyritohedral crystals with quite curved faces, and combinations thereof. Most characteristic are “pine cone” clusters, composed of many pyritohedra with curved faces. Apart from their shape, specimens can be recognized by the dark shale residues often left within any holes or gaps. |

A renowned mine which is prominent among collectors for producing some of the finest pyrite specimens (large sharp cubes in matrix) in the world. The mine is solely exploited to obtain pyrite for collection and decoration. Access to the mine is through a 3.3 km dirt road starting near the village of Navajún, only after prior communication and scheduling with the owners of the mine (Piritas de Navajún). |

The episyenites from the Sierra de Guadarrama (Spanish Central System) were formed by the hydrothermal alteration (dequartzification and alkalinization) of granitoids. The alteration took place on a regional scale, in the Lower Permian (277 Ma), in a brief period of time. Structurally, these rocks define a regional extensional geodynamic frame, with a NNE-SSW main regional extension direction (Caballero et al., 1996)The amphiboles at the locality show a large compositional variation, ranging from arfvedsonite/magnesio-arfvedsonite/riebeckite to more Li rich phases such as leakeite, pedrizite rootname minerals and clino-holmquistite. The amphiboles show large local variation and can only be differentiated by analytical methods capable of identifying the Li content (Caballero et al. 2002). |

The Cap de Creus peninsula is the eastern end of the Pyrenees and is composed of a variety of rocks with a wide range of metamorphic degree increasing from low grade until anatexis with related granodiorite and pegmatite intrusions. These materials belong to the deepest zone of the Variscan orogeny structural level. Its rocky landscapes and outcrops are famous for being a sample book of complex but clear and well exposed tectonic structures, specially ductile shear zones, but is not necessary to be a geologist to fall in love with its wild beauty.In the metasedimentary sequence one can distinguish four main areas whose degree of metamorphism increases towards NE. 1 - Epimetamorphic zone (greenschist facies) 2 - Mesometamorphic zone (biotite facies) 3 - Perianatectic zone (cordierite - andalusite to sillimanite facies) 4 - Migmatite complex In the last two areas there are many pegmatite intrusions, and is where are found most of the mineral species listed in this location, many of them observed under petrographic microscope and hardly recognizable at naked eye.Cap de Creus peninsula is a protected area –collecting is prohibited- included in Parc Natural del Cap de Creus comprising three municipalities. Cadaqués, El Port de la Selva and Roses. |

Mina Elvira is one of the names for a mining concession of 109 "pertenencias" (properties) of an iron mine named Elvira, located in the Gavà city area, between the streams Curtills and Brugués (Barcelona), around 1945. Former names were "Jesús" (1941), "La Gavarra" (t1930's), etc. The locals know these mines as the "Rocabruna mines". This name belongs from the brown (bruna) color of the rocks. "Rocabruna" is the hill where these mines are located, in the Les Ferreres range (not to be confused with the Les Ferreres mine, Rocabruna, Camprodon, Catalonia). "Elvira" mine is one of the last names of these iron mines. All specimens analyzed of hydroxylapatite and fluorapatite are carbonate rich variety (Raman id) . But it is not possible to visually distinguish between OH and F-Apatite (Rosell et al, 2022). |

Bearing lithium Pegmatite veins intruded in granulitic-sillimanite-cordierite gneiss, leucogranites and granoblastic marble with tungsten-bismuth ores (Los Alemanes Adit in Puerto Mancilla). The site is boundary to the south with a small stream located in a low angle shear zone with paleozoic schist and graphitic phyllite.Rubellite crystal up to 2cm were found very rare in a pocket with reddish brown clay, microcline, quartz and schorl tourmaline. Las Rubelitas de la zona fueron halladas por Fernando Mancilla Vázquez en el año 1988Also at the head of the basin close to the contact zone between lherzolites and granoblastic banded marble, a calcium skarn has been recognized. Mineral assemblage include vesuvianite, tremolite, grossular garnet, epidote, clinoclore and clinozoisite. Graphite were also found in massive veins, subhorizontal shear zone in serpentinized peridotites and kinzigites. |

Complex Sn-W mineralization. W-Sn veins related to the endogranite of an exogranite-endogranite/stockscheider system. Lens of stratified pegmatite with W-Sn mineralization. Strings of shear-lenses of pegmatite, with W-Sn mineralization, in tourmaline endogranite. Hübnerite is the main mineral in the wolframite series.Several mines are located in the Santa Comba´s municipality, and the main mine, known as Santa Comba Mine is in fact a set of Sn-W mines around Varilongo Mount, known the principal mine as Varilongo mine. Currently (2012), it is worked for civil engineering aggregate, developed by the company Canteira da Mina, which are the specimens referred to this post. However, there are other mines of W, of lesser importance, such as the Susana Mine, located south-west of the capital of the municipality, with scheelite in quartz veins, hosted by amphibolites. |

Currently not operational Manganese deposit northwest of the Rio Tinto mining complex.Description from http.//www.igme.es/internet/patrimonio/geosites/chapter_04_sgfg.pdf (Chapter 4, THE IBERIAN PYRITE BELT by Tornos, F., López Pamo, E., Sánchez España, F.J.; slightly edited).The mine of Soloviejo (Ramírez Copeiro and Maroto, 1985) was the biggest of a high number of small manganese deposits in the area. Currently, none of them is worked, but at the end of the XIX century, Spain was the largest producer of manganese in the world, with more than 2/3 of the global production. Most of this production came from the lenses of manganese and jasper oxides interbedded within the upper part of the purple slate of the Volcano-Sedimentary Complex. These stratabound manganese deposits are related to oxidizing environments and low-temperature exhalites, spatially and genetically independent from the massive sulphides. The mineralization and associated jasper are hosted by purple slate underneath felsic volcanoclastic rocks and slates below the Culm Group. This level has channeled an important shear deformation, so deformation structures, breccias and quartz veins are very common. This deposit includes a primary mineralization dominant in depth, consisting of fine-grained rhodonite and rhodochrosite, with abundant sericite and chlorite replacing or interbedded within the jasper. The supergene alteration is economically more interesting and includes variable proportions of pyrolusite, romanechite, lithiophorite, vernadite, cryptomelane, todorokite and hematite (Jorge, 2000), which are especially abundant in the later fractures.During a field trip in 1989 most of the described minerals could be found, the deposit yielded excellent quartz var rock crystals up to 20 cm and botryoidal manganese oxides (romanechite). The open pit is labeled in google maps La Joya o Soloviejo.Group of mines that consists of the following nine concessions. nº 32 “Nuestra Señora del Rosario”, nº 744 “La Rapiña”, nº 756 “La Joya”, nº 808 “La Grulla”, nº 874 “San Francisco de Asís”, nº 6095 “San Francisco”, nº 12777 “San Antonio”, nº 12781 “Consuelo”, nº 13992 “Ampliación a Consuelo”. The collection specimens could be likely collected in La Joya Mine. |

'Pegmatite' |
Pegmatite |
Iberian Peninsula |
A highly fractionated, Li-F-Be-B-P-bearing granite pegmatite in calc-alkaline granite and hornfels.Appears as a cupola over a PF leucogranite, displaying a non-symmetrical internal zonation with a complete sequence from a barren pegmatitic facies near the granite, to a highly evolved zone in the uppermost part of the body.Al-rich micas show a continuous evolution from muscovitic to lepidolitic compositions from the leucogranite to the most evolved zone. Fe-rich micas range from Fe-biotite in the leucogranite and in the least evolved pegmatite zones, to an intermediate composition between zinnwaldite and trilithionite in the most evolved pegmatitic facies (Roda-Robles et al., 2006).The pegmatite belongs to the Arribes del Duero Natural Park, so collecting activities are restricted. |

Tin deposit, consisting of pneumatolytic cassiterite- and montebrasite-bearing veins hosted by clay schists. The deposit was occasionally worked for both cassiterite and montebrasite. The mine was abandoned in the 1970s. Located about 5 km east of Cáceres.Currently (2018-2023), this deposit is planned to be developed into a large lithium mine by the joint venture "Tecnología Extremeña del Litio", although it is located in a Nature Park and very close to Cáceres. The city officials and the local population oppose the planned mining. |

An outcrop belonging to the Northern Nyköpingsgruvan pegmatite. Most of this pegmatite (15 m x 100 m), which is exposed in the now water-filled Nyköpingsgruvan, intrudes iron formations, metavolcanics, and skarn. But the Grundberg outcrop, an off-shot of this pegmatite located west of the mine, is intruding a dolomitic marble. It contains a much-studied fine saccharoidal albite zone. |

The laxtorpite body measures about 150 x 75 m, and is located SW of the Norra Kärr Farm. This being the largest of three kaxtorpite bodies in the Norra Kärr complex. This is found in the central part of the complex and is known for being the first recorded locality for eckermannite sensu lacto. This amphibole is now redefined by IMA in 2014 (IMA2013-136). Re-examination of the holotype material of the original sample analyzed by Törnebohm (1906) confirmed that they both are actually fluoro-leakeite. NB. eckermannites sensu lacto are found in all three laxtorpite outcrops. Old specimens labelled as "eckermannite, Norra Kärr" does not neccessarily originate from this sublocality. |

A classical locality.Several granitic Proterozoic pegmatite dikes transect the rocks of the northern part of the Utö Island. Some of these can be classified as LCT pegmatites of the petalite subtype. 2 famous classical LCT pegmatite bodies – the first ones to be recognized as lithium pegmatites – transect a sequence of rhyolitic metatuffites, skarns and BIF in old iron mines. These 2 LCT pegmatites are the type locality for 4 species. spodumene, petalite, tantalite-(Mn) and holmquistite. The element lithium was also discovered in petalite from Utö.The iron mines were opened in the 12th century and closed down in 1878. Minor silver mining also took place during the 17th century. The pegmatites were best exposed in the open pit of the Nyköpingsgruvan mine. Today, pegmatite material can best be found on the several dumps from the iron mines. Beside minerals from the primary phases like microcline, albite, petalite, spodumene, etc, also interesting late-stage paragenesis minerals (beryllosilicates and others) can be found in small cavities, cracks, and fracture infillings in the material found on the dumps.NB.

Late-stage Alpine fissures in metabauxites (greenschist facies) embedded in Triassic calcite and dolomite marbles of the Barrhorn Unit of the Siviez-Mischabel nappe.NOTE In the original paper of Chopin et al. (2003) the type-locality of zincostaurolite is erroneously reported as “Barrhorn serie in Matt valley”. But, although for few tens of meters only, metabauxites actually occur on the Turtmann watershed of Brunegg pass. |

An old iron and manganese mine. The Fianel Fe-Mn deposit is of synsedimentary to diagenetic origin, embedded in Triassic marble belonging to the Starlera nappe. It underwent a polyphase Tertiary metamorphism, climaxing under blueschist- to green-schist facies conditions (Nussbaum et al. 1998).The lenticular orebody (60 x 60 x 20 m) of Fianel was exploited for iron until the end of the 19th century. |

Marble-hosted ruby deposit, discovered in the late 1970s. Currently (2015) being worked to a depth of 30 m by the state-run Chamast enterprise (Sorokina et al., 2015).The corundum-bearing layer of grey, coarse-grained calcite marble about 20 m thick occurs between kyanite-garnet-biotite schists and a layer of yellow marble. Two en echelon mineralized zones, which are parallel to the bedding planes, have been traced along strike for 150 and 200 m (Kievlenko, 2003).Located in the eastern part of the Pamir Mountains, about 20 km south of Rangkul.Note on the mineral list. Sorokina et al. (2015) also mentions unspecified REE carbonates within an allanite inclusion associated with sapphire. |

The only Welsh goldmine outside of the mines of the Dolgellau gold-belt, the workings are of Roman (Meier, 2012) or earlier origin and of considerable significance, their standing being comparable with those in Romania and the late Iron Age gold sites of Limousin in central France. It has been suggested (e.g. Hall, 1993) these very early workings exploited an oxidized zone, with the gold being removed from gossanous clays by washing and sluicing.A series of pre-19th C pits and openworks, some with workings driven below them, run for over a km NE-SW along a mountain spur forming the SE side of the Cothi Valley. More modern workings have extended earlier workings; in the mid 1930s the sinking of New Shaft was resumed to a depth of 480 feet, with levels driven at 100, 160, 260, 360 and 460 feet to work the mineralisation under the Ogofau Pit. There is no dominant vein or lode, gold mineralisation occurring within a network of thin discontinuous veins with occasional lenses of gold bearing quartz.Little is known about the pre 19th C working, with available literature prior to 1846 showing an unawareness of gold being mined here. Gold was rediscovered in 1848 by Sir Warington Smyth of the Geological Survey, and later by Sir Henry de la Beche, who made the first gold assay of quartz from the mine. Gold was worked in a short-lived operation in 1853, and small-scale mining resumed in 1871 until 1897.Working resumed in 1905-06, with 381 tons of ore yielding 44 ounces of gold and 6.6 ounces of silver (for a profit of £172). Later in 1906 the Ogofau Mining Company processed 360 tons of ore yielding 28 ounces of gold and 5 ounces of silver (for a profit of £105). In 1908, 75 tons of ore yielded 11 ounces of gold, but development costs led to the lease passing to the Cothi Mines Ltd in 1909, who in that year recorded 23 ounces of gold from 96 tones of ore. Cothi Mines failed in 1912.The main period of working began in 1933 with the formation of Roman Deep Ltd. At least some gold was produced about this time as gold from Roman Deep together with the Dolgellau mines, Prince Edward Mine and Marina Mine provided gold for Princess Marina's wedding ring in 1935 (gold from the bar produced was also used for other royal rings). By 1936, development was well advanced but the ore, auriferous sulphide concentrates, was difficult to treat and had to be sent abroad for smelting. Ore was initially sent to Hamburg, almost 300 tons of ore yielding 260 ounces of gold. Milling began in January 1938, with 16,862 tons of ore, mostly stockpiled, producing gold worth £11,106 (representing 1388 ounces at the then gold price of £8 per ounce). About this time the political situation in Europe made it impossible to continue to ship the ore to Germany and it was then sent to Seattle in America for treatment. By November 1938 funds were exhausted and milling ceased. Pumping was stopped the following year and the company was wound up in 1943.The mine site is now a scheduled national monument run by the National Trust. It includes a visitors centre, a collection of 1930s mining machinery (from Olwyn Goch Mine near Halkyn in north Wales), and has guided tours of some of the Roman and the more recent underground workings.Drilling undertaken by students at Cardiff University and alluvial gold occurrences in streams to the NE has shown that the mineralization continues beyond the immediate mine area Brown, 1993).Visible gold is rare at Dolaucothi, although a few specimens are held in the National Museum of Wales Collection in Cardiff. More typically, the gold occurs as minute inclusions in pyrite or arsenopyrite. |

The Cornubian batholith is a large mass of granite rock, formed about 280 million years ago, which lies beneath much of the south-western peninsula of Great Britain. The main exposed masses of granite are seen at Dartmoor, Bodmin Moor, St Austell, Carnmenellis, Land's End and the Isles of Scilly. The intrusion is associated with significant quantities of minerals particularly cassiterite, an ore of tin which has been mined since about 2000 BC. Other minerals include china clay and ores of copper, lead, zinc and tungsten. (From Wikipedia)It takes its name from Cornubia, the Medieval Latin name for Cornwall. |

Plancheite supposedly collected here in 1958 by Arthur Kingsbury (1906-68) is now considered "very doubtful" and probably from Arizona. This is one of a number of likely or definitely falsified Kingsbury localities.Given the iron-rich nature of the mineral assemblage and its manganese-poor character, the strunzite should be validated from the more likely ferrostrunzite possibility. |

Iron ore was mined between 1730 and 1737, whereas, from 1841 on, manganese was mined. Due to decreasing prices, operations ceased again in 1846. At the peak, over 60 men worked at the mine. In the 1920s, iron ore from the Lecht was analysed in order to possibly justify the building of a railway to Tomintoul, but the results were not satisfying. In 1983, the building was restored by Moray District Council. |

Big crushed stone quarry on the South-Western exocontact of the Mariupol'skii alkaline massif. It is under operation and is larger and deeper than the old zircon quarry near Donskoe village on the massif sensu stricto. The main rocks in the quarry are Precambrian monzonites. Fenitization and albitization linear zones are connected with the Mariupol'skii massif and are superimposed over these rocks. The most interesting rare metal mineralisation is connected with albitization zones. |

The deposit consists of a granite pegmatite dike, enclosed in hybrid rocks, which is exposed just southwest of the crest of a small hill. The dike strikes northward, dips about 30 degrees west, is about 10 feet thick, and can be traced laterally for at least 200 feet. The dike can be divided into 3 zones. (1) a lower zone, about 4 to 5 feet thick, which is chiefly graphic granite; (2) a core, about 1 ft. thick, which is composed of quartz, albite (including variety cleavelandite), muscovite, 'Lepidolite', tourmaline, garnet, and allanite; and (3) an upper zone, 4 to 5 feet thick, which is medium- to coarse-grained graphic granite with muscovite, and black tourmaline crystals as long as 9 inches. The tourmaline crystals of the core commonly range in color from solid black to crystals with black cores and grass green exteriors. Weber also noted in 1958 that core zone produced tourmalines which were pale blue, pale pink, and colorless crystals. These pale crystals were described as thin and averaged less than 1/2 inch to 1 inch in length, with the smallest crystals being gemmy. The discovery in 2001 proved that these smaller crystals in the core zone were exposed along the outer margins of much larger mineralization further down dip. The remarkable 1.8 x 1.5 x 0.9-meter pocket yielded bright pink tourmaline crystals to 25 cm long and 10 cm across. |

Granite pegmatite. List also include species found in the chlorite/actinolite schist host rocks. Hall's Ridge, Plumbago-Puzzle Mountain. - Oxford pegmatite field. Located in the Main Pegmatite sheet. Land currently owned by Plumbago Timber and Quarries LLC which permitted use of new mineral discovery information to appear on mindat.The first Rose Quartz crystals known in the world were found at Mount Mica Quarry about 1913-1915. The second locality for genuine rose quartz crystals in the world, the Dunton Gem Quarry, Newry, produced its first crystals in 1927. A third world locality was discovered in 1942, at the Rose Quartz Crystal locality, by George Crooker. Rose Quartz crystals were found at the Nevel Quarry, Newry and in the Red Hill Quarry Group, Rumford, Maine in 1949. Rose Quartz crystals were not known in Brazil until 1958. |

'Pegmatite' |
Quarry |
NaN |
The main details about this granite pegmatite quarry are given by Cameron et al (1954).The State Forest No. 1 quarry lies in the town of East Hampton, 2.3 miles N. 55° W. of the center of East Hampton village...The property is owned by the State of Connecticut and is administered by the Forestry Department, State Office Building, Hartford. The New Haven Trap Rock Co., 67 Church Street, New Haven, quarried the pegmatite in October and November 1942, and the Worth Spar Co., Inc., Cobalt, operated the deposit for 3 months in the summer of 1943. The workings consist of an opencut about 90 feet long, 40 feet wide and 15 feet deep. E. N. Cameron examined the property in November 1942.At the time of examination, the pegmatite was so poorly exposed that its form, attitude and extent could not be determined. Probably it strikes north-northeast. At the entrance to the quarry, and on the east side of the cut, pegmatite is exposed in irregular crosscutting contact with quartz-mica schists. However, it is not certain whether the schists are the true walls of the pegmatite or merely inclusions in it.The pegmatite is composed chiefly of coarse-grained quartz and plagioclase, intergrown in various proportions. Muscovite, garnet, tourmaline, and beryl are also present. Pods of [microcline] perthite and of quartz and [microcline] perthite as much as 4 feet long and 2 feet wide are irregularly distributed through the pegmatite.Mica books 2 to 15 inches in diameter and 3/4 to 4 inches thick are present in the pegmatite. At the time of examination, however, the quarry walls were obscured to such an extent that the distribution of the mica could not be determined satisfactorily. According to the quarrymen, most of the mica mined in 1942 was associated with a pod of coarse-grained quartz and [microcline] perthite.The mica is a clear, light rum, moderately hard, free-splitting muscovite. Most books are free of inclusions, but some contain garnet and plagioclase crystals. All the books are more or less marred by “A” structure, ruling, and cross-fracturing, and many books are wedge-shaped. Beryl occurs as crystals 1 to 8 inches in length and 1/2 to 5 inches in diameter. Mica was found associated with one or more pods, and scattered books of mica occur elsewhere in the pegmatite. The average percentage of crude mica recovered from rock mined was very low, however. Neither of the attempts made to mine the deposit in 1942 and 1943 was successful. (Cameron)Scheelite is reported in the literature as occurring here, but the report almost certainly results from confusion with the Worth Quarry that was also operated by the Worth Spar Co. on Hog Hill near Middle Haddam where scheelite was found.Collecting is allowed via permit issued by the Connecticut DEEP to educational organizations (schools, mineral clubs, etc.).

A former kyanite occurrence/mine located near Sprouses Corner and 6.5 km (4.0 miles) NNW of Curdsville, on private land. Owned by the Kyanite Mining Corporation (1981). Driving directions. at the end of service road 0.6 km (0.4 mile) by road E of the junction with US highway 15, 1.9 km (1.2 miles) N of the junction with state road 609, S of Pleasant Valley. First produced in 1957. The deposits and regional geology were studied in detail by the USGS during the period 1951 through 1953. This was the leading North American producer of kyanite.Mineralization is a kyanite deposit hosted in intrusive Early Cambrian Chopawamsic Formation and schist. The ore body is a lens with a length of 2,011.63 meters and a depth-to-bottom of 60.96 meters. Sand and gravel were a by-product of the mining operation. Local rocks include rocks of the Arvonia Formation - Kyanite quartzite and schist.Regional geologic structures include the NE-SW-trending Whispering Creek anticline. Local structures include a syncline.Workings include surface openings.Analytical data results. 10-30% kyanite.Total reserves of all deposits in the district are about 50,000,000 tons of ore. |

An underground mica mine, worked first for lithia from 'Lepidolite' in the 1910s (Swanson mine), then for sheet muscovite during WWII (Anderson No. 1 mine). Some older references state it is in Haddam or the Haddam Neck section of that town, but it is just north of line in southernmost East Hampton (fka, Chatham). The mine worked a complexly-zoned and lithium-rich granite pegmatite. In 1899, Horace Williams leased the property from Olaf P. Swanson "for the period of ninety nine years from the first day of April 1900, to explore, quarry, mine and dig for minerals in, upon or under the surface of the farm" (Haddam Land Records, 1899). The 'Lepidolite' was surface mined from a trench.Allegedly, early in World War I the Imperial German Government bought a whole shipload of 'Lepidolite' from here as a source of lithium. Before the ship could leave New York, the U.S. Government banned the export of strategic minerals, so the ship's captain radioed Berlin for instructions, and, receiving them, had his crew dump the whole cargo into New York Harbor. The source of this tale is vague. Davis (1901) states that, "The output is used in the manufacture of Lithia salts for medicinal purposes. This is shipped, as taken out, in barrels, by steamer to New York." Williams (circa 1945) makes no reference to the fate of the 'Lepidolite'. Shannon (1920) says "several tons were mined many years ago and the mineral still remains in a pile". Foye (1922) comes closest with this unattributed statement. "It was with the expectation that the 'Lepidolite' might be shipped to Germany as a source of lithium that the quarry was opened, just before the war. It is reported that shipments got no farther than the dock." Schooner (1961) says it was never shipped. The large stockpile can be seen in the WWII-era map of the locality in Cameron and others (1954). Reportedly in the 1960s, the WWII-era muscovite mine shaft (Anderson No. 1 Mica Mine) was filled in with the 'Lepidolite' stockpile. The waste from the Anderson mine was carted on a tram to a small ravine 60 meters or so to the east. |

Pegmatite' |
NaN |

Summary. A complex and highly mineralized granitic pegmatite-aplite dike, located near the village of Pala. The pegmatite was originally mined during the late 19th and early 20th centuries as a source of lithium from massive pods of 'Lepidolite' that occur in the dike. Was reopened in the late 1960s as a gem mine and has periodically produced specimens and gem material of elbaite, as well as morganite and kunzite. The mine is particularly known for its reddish-pink elbaite.The deposit is on private land, patented in 1949 by Blanche C. Crane. |

Mazatzal Domain, Tularosa Basin |
Alkaline intrusion. Part of the Cornudas Mountains/Diablo Plateau complex.Wind Mountain was formed by a laccolith of porphyritic nepheline syenite that rises about 2,500 ft (762 m) above the surrounding Diablo Plateau (Holser, 1959). Dikes and sills of nepheline syenite, syenite and phonolite cut the main mass of the laccolith (McLemore 1993). Some dike-like bodies have also intruded into the country rock (Permian limestone) near the base of the mountain (Boggs 1986). The margins of some of the dikes have been altered to hornfels. Larger bodies of hornfels were also formed from the emplacement of the laccolith. At least some of the dikes and sills contain thorium, uranium, and rare earth elements (REE) mineralization (McLemore, 1983). The alkaline dikes and sills reportedly also contain anomalous concentrations of beryllium (Be), niobium (Nb), lithium (Li), nickel (Ni), tin (Sn), zirconium (Zr), and fluorine (F, in fluorite). |

The most complex and largest pegmatite in the Hoskins Lake pegmatite field. These pegmatites are as yet undated but probably are related to the intrusion of 1,760 million-year-old Bush Lake Granite. Location is in Sec 22, T39N R17E. The coordinates mark a prominent outcrop. This locality is now part of the "Pine River Wild Rivers Area", and collecting is no longer permitted. |

A former limestone/marble quarry located in the SW¼NW¼SW¼ sec. 5, T2S, R5W, SBM, 4.7 km (2.9 miles) NW of Jurupa and 4 miles (6.44 km) W of Riverside. MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 10 meters.Local rocks include Mesozoic granitic rocks, unit 2 (Peninsular Ranges).First worked during World War I for marble for cement manufacture by Riverside Cement Company (the same company that owned the more famous nearby Crestmore deposit). Closed in 1927; reopened by Riverside Cement Company in 1948; closed again in 1955. Snow Rock Corporation leased the northeastern section of the quarry from the early 1960s until 1971 to mine dolomitic marble (too high in Mg for cement) for granulated roofing material. The last period of commercial activity was 1974-1979, when Riverside Cement Company removed the last of the cement-grade marble. Since 1979, the remaining pegmatites, impure marbles and other contact metamorphic rocks have been of interest only to field collectors.In the late 1990s, the abandoned quarry was purchased by a golf club and remodelled into a spectacular course, with white marble and pegmatite cliffs as backdrop, now the "Landmark Golf Club at Oak Quarry" (renamed Oak Quarry by the golf club; not known as Oak Quarry during its active, extractive years), so field collecting is no longer allowed. But the management are proud of the mineralogical heritage of their site, and the course holes bear fanciful mineral names. Biotite Bluff, Calcite Canyon, Garnet Meadow, Graphite Tower, Gypsum Gully, Limestone Dome, Magnesite Terrace, Marble Ridge, Microlite Ledge, Muscovite Marsh, Opal Outcrop, Pyrite Perch, Quartz Corner, Spinel Slide, Tourmaline Tower, Tremolite Pass, Zircon Tumble.

Setting. The Anita Mine, which is also referred to as the Magee and Dougherty Mine, is located in the NW¼ Sec. 22, T6S, R1E, SBM, 2.3 km (1.4 miles) WNW of Red Mountain (coordinates of record), on a north-facing slope opposite the northwest ridge of Red Mountain. Panoramic views NW from the mine include the bald peak of Mt San Antonio, located in the extreme NE portion of Los Angeles County. Also visible to the northeast is Mt San Gorgonio, located in San Bernardino County. Dense vegetation consisting of chaparral dominates the property, although seasonal grasses surrounding the immediate mine area have traditionally supported livestock raising activities. MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 500 meters.Geology. The Anita Mine is at the north edge of a mesa underlain by Mesozoic quartz-diorite. A pegmatite dike is as much as 12 feet in thickness is exposed on a north-facing slope. The dike appears to be either a group of parallel and partially coalesced dikes or a single branching body. It strikes about N. 20 E., dips approximately 25 degrees NW., and is exposed over an area 200 feet by 300 feet. Quartz and albite feldspar make up the bulk of the dike. Both form pure crystalline masses but most commonly occur as a graphic intergrowth. The rarer minerals include black, green, pink, and blue tourmaline; 'Lepidolite', biotite mica, and garnet. The tourmaline commonly shows color zonation, some crystals changing from end to end; others are zoned concentric to their axis. The small quantities of gem-quality material appear to be concentrated in 'Lepidolite'-rich zones and in pockets. Because of the confused and littered character of the exposure and the large quantities of material removed from the working, the structure of the dike was not determined. It may be significant that the main development is near the hanging wall of the dike. The deposit has also been noted to produce specimens of columbite. Local rocks include Mesozoic granitic rocks, unit 2 (Peninsular Ranges).Development. The principal workings radiate from an oval pit about 50 feet long and 30 feet wide. They comprise a stope, which extends about 50 feet up the dip of the dike from the south end of the pit, a drift adit about 100 feet long driven into the west side of the pit, and an inclined shaft of undetermined depth descending from the north end. In addition, several shallow pits and trenches were dug in the outcrop. These workings were later excavated with a small dozer.History. According to Mr. Harry Bergman this mine was operated in the early 1900’s. Mr. Bergman helped with the early development of this property when it was known as the Magee Mine (RBS personal communication, Harry Bergman, Aguanga, 1958). Between 1901 and 1914, extensive surface and underground development was made by avid gem prospector - Henry Magee of Pala. As much as 10 pounds of clear gem tourmaline was taken from the deposit and several hundred pounds of fractured, pink tourmaline were shipped to China for carving (Harry Bergman).The mine workings were disposed of within 2 federal government lots totaling 120 acres of land which was patented on February 14th 1938. The mine was reported to be idle by 1958, although mining had most likely ended prior to issuance of the grant deed.Little information exists on mineral recovery efforts between 1959 and 1989, although the old workings were undoubtedly visited by the occasional mineral hobbyist, looking for small, easily obtainable tourmaline fragments which weathering had exposed on the mine dumps. At some point in time the old underground workings were excavated by exposing the near surface pegmatite hang wall using a small dozer to strip overburden, whence drilling, blasting, and hand methods were utilized to remove support pillars.In February 1994, Mechanical Engineer Paul Nolan of Santa Barbara, began to gather information on the exact location of the mine workings relating to the planned subdivision parcel boundaries. Subsequent subdivision of the property was partially completed on April 13th 1995, resulting in the mine being located within an oddly shaped parcel containing 20.08 acres. In January of 1996, the San Diego Mining Company began investigative research into the remaining mineral potential of the Anita mine which determined that subsurface mineral rights attached to the estate were limited to a depth of 500 feet below the existing topography.In the winter of 1997, local mineral collector Al Ordway of nearby Hesperia began to seriously inspect the pegmatite, scouring the available surface exposure for signs of any potential tourmaline-bearing pocket zone adjacent to the area of underground development. Together with his partner Jon Page of Anza, work began exposing the pegmatite by removing heavily weathered rock near the point where underground workings had nearly breached the surface. Not more than 2 feet down, digging paid off when a seemingly large cavity was discovered. Subsequent excavation revealed an area of decomposed feldspar measuring nearly 4 feet wide. While removing clay near the center of the pocket, a group of interlocking tourmalines were found which remained partially intact. These green and pink elbaite crystals altogether comprised a single massive crystal measuring nearly 38 cm in diameter, and standing just slightly over 8 cm in height. Ordway recalled the experience as the best 4 days in his 40 plus years of digging. |

Located in the S2 Sec. 24 T9S R2W SBM, the mine is near the base of the northwest slope of Hiriart Mountain. The Anita pegmatite dike is exposed over an area of several thousand feet in the center of the claim (Anita Lode MS 6859). Reports mention the shallow workings as producing gem minerals including spodumene, beryl and quartz. Petalite is also noted to occur. The deposit was developed by several shallow cuts and minor underground workings. |

Setting. Located in the N2NE4NW4 Sec. 23 T9S R2W, about 1.75 miles north-northeast of Pala, the workings are situated at the base of the eastern slope of Tourmaline Queen Mountain, along the extreme northern end of the Douglass pegmatite dike, adjacent to the Trujillo Canyon road (Salmons Canyon) near the now wild eucalyptus grove, originally planted along the sides of the roadway beginning at the entrance to Salmons City.History. The North Douglass prospect was described in 1947 by Edward R. Swoboda as pegmatite between 4 to 7 feet thick that had been exposed in an open cut measuring 10 x 6 x 4 feet, heading south along the slope of the mountain. The pegmatite here was described as mainly graphic granite and sprays of muscovite mica, with local masses of quartz and quartz with blocky microcline showing as segments of core zone. Garnet and schorl were reported in the quartz. A good amount of adjacent float fragments including fine to coarse grained 'Lepidolite' with quartz and cleavelandite, together with crystals of gem-quality pink, blue and green tourmaline, suggests the presence of pockets within the dike.The claim was considered abandoned by 1958, and the land is now managed for the benefit of the Pala Band of Mission Indians by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). |

Stony Point is about 35 miles southeast of the Blue Ridge, and 16 miles northeast of Statesville. The surface of the country is rolling, the elevation being about 1000' AMSL. The soil is generally a red, gravelly clay, resulting from the decomposition of the gneissoid rock. Unaltered rock appears at a depth of 26 feet and is unusually hard, especially along the walls of the gem-bearing pockets which form in veins of quartz that traverse the gneiss. These veins are usually quite narrow, and generally strike east and west, and dip to the north. Some of the veins widen out occasionally and form cavities several inches wide and several feet in length, or in rare cases much larger. |

Structure. Within The Mcdermitt Caldera Fault, Ring FracturesTectonics. Basin And RangeCommodity. Hectorite has an extremely small crystal size and the crystals are al flake-shaped; both these properties are economically important. Hectorite is white to ligh pink, yellow, or green.Deposit. The deposit was probably precipitated from hydrothermal wates which issued along an adjacent fault. The deposit occurs on the north side of the fault and is thickest adjacent to the fault. It is also on or near the intersection of 2 ring fracture zones. Towards the margins of the deposit, the hectorite is mixed with white calcium carbonate and dolomite, which further suggests a thermal spring origin. The base of the deposit is in sharp contact with a reddish, iron-rich and sandy regolith developed on the underlying volcanic rocks. Carbonates and volcaniclastic sediments overlay the deposit. Laterally, the hectorite interfingers with carbonates and hectorite-rich volcaniclastic sediments. A bed of high purity hectorite (about 1 in thick) occurs about 5 ft above the main deposit.Development. Econ.com. ore is hauled to belle fouche, south dakota for processing.Geology. Concretionary masses of amethyst-colored quartz occur sporadically within the main body of hectorite. The masses are irregular in sape and appear to have formed simultaneously with the deposition of the hectorite. They are several inches to one foot in diameter and easily removed during processing. |

A deposit located in sec. 5, T7S, R2E, SBM, 1.3 km (0.8 mile) SE of Little Cahuilla Mountain (coordinates of record) and 8.4 km (5.2 miles) NW of Cahuilla (town), along the lower southern slope of the mountain, on the northern fringe of Juan Diego Flats. MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 500 meters.Local rocks include pre-Cenozoic granitic and metamorphic rocks undivided.Summary. Southern California is world famous among mineral collectors for their pegmatites which have produced vast quantities of gem-quality minerals. The pegmatites are well-known for their production of gem tourmaline, beryl and spodumene. Additional rare-element minerals reported include columbite-tantalite, stibiotantalite, 'Lepidolite', and various primary and secondary phosphates.(Wise, M. A. and Taylor, M. (1994))Many of the pegmatites are well exposed and because of their resistance to erosion, stand out as leucocratic wall-like projections extending across otherwise smooth slopes. Downhill from these dikes the slopes are strewn with pegmatite blocks and other persistent float minerals.[1]The Juan Diego Mine contains a gem-bearing granitic pegmatite mineral deposit, containing tourmaline and associated gem quality minerals. The primary pegmatite dike strikes northwest and dips to the east. Initial discovery of gem minerals upon portions of the surface indicate erosion of gem-bearing miarolitic cavities (pockets) formed within the pegmatite. Observations indicate the general character of the pegmatite dike is continuous laterally along strike and down dip for up to several thousand feet.Eroded sections of gem-bearing pockets discovered on and near the surface occur at a frequency to compel the owners to initiate commercial underground mining to exploit the pegmatite along strike and down dip. Valuable minerals to be mined include tourmaline, beryl, garnet, and quartz.Physiographic Data. The San Jacinto Mountains form the northernmost and highest of the Peninsular Ranges of southern California , an are composed primarily of a pre-Cenozoic crystalline basement of plutonic and metamorphic rocks.[2]The southern San Jacinto Mountains are partly separated by Garner Valley at altitudes of about 4500 ft. (+ or - 1350 m) from the long low ridge of Thomas Mountain elevated as a strip of granitic terrain along the San Jacinto fault zone.[2]Cahuilla Mountain rises steeply from the Anza Valley floor to a height of 5604 feet. The intrusive pluton of tonalite of Mesozoic age can be seen where it outcrops on the southeast side of the mountain to form light colored cliffs that contrast sharply with the adjacent slopes that are underlain my metamorphic rocks.[3]The Juan Diego mine site encompasses a flat meadow known as Juan Diego Flats that is the central portion of the site. To the east of this flat is a small intermittent stream that flows with seasonal rains. Located west of the flat, are two gently sloping foothills stemming southeast from Little Cahuilla Mountain. The northwestern foothill (approx 4,280 feet AMSL) contains the primary granitic pegmatite of economic importance. From this location, maximum relief is approximately 160 feet. The pegmatite dike which is striking north to northwest, forms the high point of the hill and the slope conforms to the dip of the dike. There are two enriched zones of the pegmatite dike that appear as sections of increased width along the strike associated with a decrease in dip. These sections occur on the lower south side and upper north side of the hill associated with the eroded pocket zones.[4]Geologic Setting. The material from which igneous rocks form is the magma, the viscous molten material from the interior of the Earth. If this fluid magmatic material penetrates into the lower parts of the Earth’s crust plutonic rocks develop after a period of slow cooling. If magmatic material pours out directly onto the Earth’s surface volcanic rocks form as the material cools down relatively quickly. Between these two groups lie the dike or microplutonic rocks as transitional members. Because the igneous rocks begin the rock cycle they are termed primary rocks.[5]Granite is an intrusive igneous crystalline rock typically composed of about 30 percent quartz, 60 percent feldspar, and 10 percent mica. Granite is considered hard (above 5½ on Mohs’ Scale) and weather resistant.[6]Granitic pegmatites can be described as coarse- to gigantic-grained rocks with mineralogy and chemical composition similar to granite. The essential minerals of pegmatites include quartz, potassium and sodium feldspars and muscovite. The presence of accessory minerals such as beryl, columbite-tantalite and spodumene indicate elevated concentrations of beryllium, tantalum and lithium, respectively.Quartz, microcline, and albite are ubiquitous in these pegmatites, whereas important gem and rare-element-bearing species vary from district to district and pegmatite to pegmatite. (Kampf 1994)The Juan Diego mine lies within the southeast San Jacinto Mountains of the the Peninsular Range province.The Peninsular Range Province extends from the Los Angeles Basin on the north, 125 miles to the Mexican Border, and beyond it into Baja California. The core of these mountains consists mostly of Late Jurassic and Cretaceous plutonic rocks, older metamorphic wall rocks, and younger marine sediments. The Californian Peninsular Ranges are traversed by a large number of discontinuous northwest-trending faults, some of which have displayed movement during historic time. The seismicity of the area, combined with recent topographic fault-related features, suggests that many of these structures are active. These faults appear to be very steep to vertical and manifest a combination of right-lateral and vertical offset.[8] |

Pegmatite |
Quarry |
Ganderia Domain |
Granite pegmatite - Oxford pegmatite field. Originally opened by George "Shavey" Noyes and Tim Heath, about 1894. Locality was obtained from Shavey's sixth cousin, Isaac Patch Noyes. Worked briefly by Loren Merrill and Arthur Valley in 1921-1922 for the benefit of Kenneth K. Landes, then a Harvard University student. Landes' dissertation, Paragenesis of the Granitic Pegmatites of Central Maine (American Mineralogist, 1925, v. 10, p. 355-411) was based on this quarry and the Bennett Quarry in Buckfield and his thesis revolutionized ideas about how pegmatites crystallize. (Note. The non-pegmatite species reported occur in the metamorphic rock (Patch Mountain member of Sangerville Formation) hosting the pegmatite.) |

Setting. Located in the NW4 Sec. 23 T9S R2W SBM, at a point around 400 feet northwest of the center of the section survey, approximately 1.5 miles northeast of Pala. The mine workings are within the center portion of the southern half of the Douglass dike, which extends for about 4000 feet along the base of the southeastern side of Tourmaline Queen Mountain, and was developed in the early 1900's.History. In 1914, Frederick Merrill reported that the American Lithia and Chemical Company owned a half interest in the Douglass claim, with the remaining interest held by T. A. Blakeley, of San Bernardino.In 1951, Richard H. Jahns listed the principal output as gem and specimen quality tourmaline and quartz. The mine was considered abandoned by 1958. In 1963, F. H. Weber noted that in addition to the usual pegmatite minerals, honey-yellow to orange-brown crystals of grossularite, and iridescent stains of marcasite occur in the dike.The land is now managed for the benefit of the Pala Band of Mission Indians by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). |

The K. C. Naylor mine is located in the E2E2SE4 Sec. 24 T9S R2W SBM. The main workings are very low on the eastern slope of Hiriart Mountain, in the north part of the El Molino pegmatite dike, which strikes north, dips about 20 degrees west, and is the most eastern pegmatite exposure on the mountain. The dike is exposed along strike for nearly 2500 feet. The deposit was developed by two minor cuts. Early reports mention the workings as a source of tourmaline and quartz. Other minerals noted to occur are gem-spodumene and 'Lepidolite'. The Canyon prospect is within the surveyed claim boundaries, north of the main workings. |

Setting. The Oceanview mine is the metonymical name given to the most recent adits and associated underground workings located on the western downhill portion of the unpatented Elizabeth R. lode mining claim, at an elevation of approximately 1287 feet AMSL.History. Work began around September of 2000 developing the main adit that now serves as the lowest underground haulageway for mechanized mining, which runs east for approximately 60 feet, then follows the Oceanview pegmatite[1] laterally along strike, as it meanders south to southwestward for a distance of over 400 feet.Underground work progressed until a large pocket was discovered September 22, 2007, located up-dip about midway along the haulage drift. Over several months, this zone of mineralization produced several notable specimens of fine pastel pink, blue and bicolor beryl crystals; primarily occurring as tea-cup sized singles and smaller clusters, in association with darkly colored tourmaline, and some attractively arranged on matrices of cleavelandite. This pocket was referred to by the miners as the "49'er pocket", in homage to the mine owner Jeffrey Swanger's coinciding 49th birthday.The beryl recovered from this zone were typical in form and color as those recovered further up-dip in the same pegmatite by Roland Reed. Other minerals found in these workings included small amounts of pale blue and dark purple to black tourmalines or schorl, spodumene, microcline, muscovite, montmorillonite, and quartz. Some large gem-quality smoky citrine quartz crystal points and clusters were produced, many weighing up to several hundred pounds each.Around November of 2009, a new adit was completed approximately 200 feet south of the first adit driven by Swanger in 2000. This new portal intersected the existing underground haulageway, facilitating improved removal of waste rock generated during mining operations, and increased underground ventilation control.A crew of 5 or so miners continued to work intermittently, concentrating efforts to extend the underground workings into the paystreak discovered earlier by Reed, located approximately 100 feet up-dip from Swanger's adits, ultimately developing a series of drifts, declines, and stopes along the trend of lithia mineralization. The upper zone of lithia mineralization exploited by Reed is characterized as massive purple 'Lepidolite', sometimes associated with sprays of pink tourmaline and anhedral spodumene.On December 3rd, 2009, another bonanza pocket was discovered, with extraction work performed by Jeffrey Swanger, Steve Carter, and Mark Mauthner. This basketball-sized pocket produced several deep purple and lavender kunzite crystals, the largest measuring approximately 7.4cm wide, being doubly terminated, along with many fine gem-quality green and bicolored spodumene crystal laths and shards. Nearly all of the kunzite recovered exhibited strong green to purple trichroism. Other accessory minerals recovered adjacent to this pocket included several small pale blue to dark blue-capped tourmaline crystals, 'Lepidolite', and cleavelandite.Underground work continued along the zone of lithia mineralization, which led to the discovery of additional kunzite pockets in the spring of 2010. In this area, dubbed the "Big Kahuna" zone in honor of Swanger's father, hundreds of kilograms of gem spodumene were produced, including one large crystal lath measuring approximately 21cm tall, and weighing nearly one kilogram. Minor amounts of green, blue and pink tourmaline were also discovered, including some fine bicolor pink and green pencils. The largest reported tourmaline found measured approximately 15cm tall and 3-4cm wide. Additionally, several beryl specimens were also discovered, although beryl was notably rare in this zone. One tabular morganite crystal recovered measured 7cm across, associated with a small "blue-cap" pink tourmaline.In December of 2010, another large kunzite pocket was discovered down dip from the Big Kahuna zone, and thus named the "Big Kahuna II". Although not as productive in comparison to the sheer volume of material produced from the first pocket, the color of this spodumene was generally a more deeply saturated hue and exhibited strong pleochroism. Several deep colored pink and cranberry red color-zoned tourmaline specimens were also found, some associated with a matrix of albite and 'Lepidolite'. Adjacent satellite pockets produced specimens of citrine and smoky quartz, some so deeply colored that they appeared black or otherwise opaque.Footnote.1. The Oceanview pegmatite dike outcrops along the western endline of the patented Oceanview lode mining claim, and along the eastern endline of the Elizabeth R. lode mining claim, and dips down beneath the surface towards the west, and slightly southwards. The continuity of the deposit has proven remarkably homogeneous along strike and dip, with most of the minerals recovered consistently similar in character and formation. |

'Pegmatite' |
Pegmatite |
Piedmontia Domain |
Granite pegmatite occurs as scattered boulders to five meters in maximum dimension. Although there are bedrock occurrences of granite pegmatite in the area, the tourmaline and cleavelandite boulders can not be traced to a particular dike. Elijah Weeks [b. August 23, 1764] owned the farm 1784-1789. Elijah sold the farm to his brother-in-law, Cyrus Stearns, in 1789. The tourmaline and other interesting minerals including tourmaline were discovered by or before 1811, when mining of the pegmatite boulders began by Dr. David Hunt of Northampton and Colonel George Gibbs of Newport, RI. After Elijah Weeks' father died in 1817, Elijah Weeks moved to Scipio, New York. In 1819, Gibbs' wrote about the locality and gave credit to "Mr. Weeks of New York" for being the discoverer of the locality. In 1823, Cyrus Stearns sold the farm to Levi Barrus. The farm sold back and forth to various people and Levi Barrus until 1845 and then Levi lived on the farm continuously until his death in 1877. Alvan Barrus, his son, inherited the farm. Although the locality was originally called the Weeks Farm, the subsequent owners, the Barrus family owned the land for such an extended period of time that the Weeks connection was all but forgotten. |

Granite pegmatite. This is an LCT class granite pegmatite. The mineral list below also contains species from chlorite/actinolite schist host rocks. Hall's Ridge, Plumbago-Puzzle Mountain - Oxford pegmatite field. Discovered in 1898 by Henry C. Hall who was the brother-in-law of the landowner, Joshua Abbott. Property obtained by International Paper Company in 1898. Leased to Hollis C. Dunton and partners 1902-1904, perhaps until 1905. leased by General Electric Corporation in 1926-1930, with Wallace Dickerson "Dick" Nevel as superintendent. George Crooker worked for Nevel in 1926-1927. Leased briefly by Harvard University in 1949. Leased briefly in 1966 by Richard "Dick" Robinson of Pennacook, New Hampshire. Leased by Plumbago Mining Corporation 1972-1977. Leased by Joseph "Joey" Martin 1985-1989. Leased by American Tourmaline Fields from 1989-1996. Purchased by Plumbago Timber and Quarries LLC in 2004. The first rose quartz crystals known in the world were found at Mount Mica Quarry about 1913-1915. The second locality for genuine rose quartz crystals in the world, the Dunton Gem Quarry, Newry, produced its first crystals in 1927. A third world locality was discovered in 1942, at the rose quartz Crystal locality, Newry, by George Crooker. Rose quartz crystals were found at the Nevel Quarry, Newry and in the Red Hill Quarry Group, Rumford, Maine in 1949. Rose quartz crystals were not known in Brazil until 1958. |

Southern California Borderland Basins |
A pegmatite occurrence/mine located 9.1 km (5.7 miles) WSW of Dos Cabezas and 11.8 km (7.3 miles) NNW of Jacumba.Summary.A 12- to 15-ft-thick pegmatite dike strikes north 22 degrees west, and is exposed intermittently for about 1/2 mile in schist and quartzite. Faulting of the dike has caused the dip to range from 5 degrees to 60 degrees southwest. Pockets within the dike have gem minerals of quartz, goshenite, aquamarine, and kunzite. In addition to gem minerals, minor concentrations of lithiophilite, cassiterite, cleavelandite, columbite/tantalite, black tourmaline (schorl), and mica were observed. Most pockets are filled with montmorillonite clay. Pockets range in size from a few inches to several feet; with three to five pockets commonly occurring within these zones of enrichment.Workings & Production.Three adits, each less than 20 feet long, and one open cut. According to Loren Beebe's co-partner Fred Stevens, $500.000 in gem quality kunzite was produced from pockets found between 1974 and 1986. He further stated that several thousand dollars of aquamarine was produced during the early 1980's. |

Pegmatite |
Quarry |
Ganderia Domain |
Granite pegmatite. Feldspar quarry opened in 1930; also produced about 500 pounds of pollucite. In 1936, rare trapezohedral pollucite crystals to 2 mm were found in cavities in corroded petalite. The phosphate minerals present are generally very manganese-rich although old references incorrectly suggest that iron-rich species, etc. were found. Bright pink masses of montmorillonite are famous from this location. Now worked for mineral specimens, including rare pseudocubic quartz crystals. The granite pegmatite is hosted by calc-silicate Patch Mountain member of the Sangerville Formation which contains, diopside, vesuvianite, scheelite, etc. |

Deposit. Target is flat-lying, probably lenticular. Bodies of hectorite, a li-bearing white montmorillonite clay, prized for its high plasticity and viscosity in liquids. Thickness, extend, and tonnage of hectorite is unknown. There are no outcrops in the area, but extent of the clay-bearing sedimentary unit is inferredDevelopment. Clays were discovered by drilling in 1983, 1984 and perhaps earlier. No activity at time of examination in 1984. |

Ganderia Domain |
Oxford pegmatite field? (The origins of the Bemis Stream granite pegmatite are unknown. In Western Maine, the granitic pegmatites are believed to have been derived by partial melting of muscovite-bearing pelitic rocks [London, 2008; Simmons, W., Foord, E., Falster, A., and King, V., 1995]. The Sebago Batholith (~294 my BP) and the much older Mooselookmeguntic Pluton (~370 my BP) are candidates for the heat source leading to partial melting and generation of pegmatite-forming fluids in this area, although there is a proximity factor favoring the older pluton. An even older thermal event (~404 my BP) may be responsible for the necessary heat. Although there are granite/granodiorite hosted granite pegmatites in Western Maine, most of the Western Maine granite pegmatites are probably not derived from plutonic source fluids, but are from the thermal aureole associated with plutons. Studies are currently under way to further characterize the origins. |

Setting. The Elizabeth R. mine is located in the N2SE4SE4 Sec. 14, T9S R2W SBM, approximately 2.5 miles northeast of Pala, on the northwest slope of Chief Mountain. The mine is adjacent to and north of the Pala Chief mine, and west of the Oceanview mine. A number of complex pegmatites occur on the property, some of which have produced gem quality crystals of beryl and tourmaline.History. A claim to the deposit was first made in 1907 by Frank A. Salmons and was named Hazel W. in honor of Salmons' wife. The Hazel W. was part of the group of lode mining claims controlled by The Pala Chief Gem Mining Company for several decades, however, the original claim was considered abandoned by the early 1950s.A later claim to the Hazel W. deposit was purchased by Roland Reed from M. Myers & Barker in April of 1974 and renamed the Elizabeth R. in honor of Reed's wife. For nearly three decades, underground development in this area by Reed and his crew produced outstanding morganite, aquamarine, some polychrome tourmaline, kunzite, and accessory minerals such 'Lepidolite', apatite, lithium phosphates, columbite, tantalite, quartz, and feldspar.On December 27th, 2000, the California Indian Land Transfer Act removed the surrounding vacant public lands encumbered by the claim area of the Elizabeth R. lode from mineral entry under the United States general mining laws. Although these lands were to be held in trust for the benefit of the Pala Band of Mission Indians, the transfer was subject to the valid existing rights, which effectively allowed ongoing mining operations to continue.The most recent adits and underground workings located within the land boundaries claimed by the unpatented Elizabeth R. lode are referred to as the "Oceanview mine". Work began around September of 2000 by Jeffrey Swanger and Stephen Koonce of Escondido, Philip Osborn of Hemet, and Otto Komarek of Pala. A new adit was constructed in order to intersect the pegmatite further down dip at a point west of the Oceanview lode property boundaries. This adit now serves as the lowest underground haulageway for modern mechanized hard rock mining operations. The underground workings associated with this adit run east for approximately 60 feet, then follow the Oceanview pegmatite laterally along strike, heading south to southwestward for a distance of over 400 feet.In August of 2010, a quitclaim deed was filed with the County of San Diego, transferring ownership of the Elizabeth R. lode mining claim from Roland Reed to Jeffrey Swanger. |

Granite pegmatite located 7.2 km (4.5 miles) NE of Boulevard; 9.1 km (5.6 miles) WSW of Dos Cabezas; and, 11.7 km (7.3 miles) NNW of Jacumba.Summary.Several 10- to 20-foot-thick granite pegmatite dikes trend north 6 degrees west, dip 65 degrees west, and extend as far as one-half mile in schist and quartzite. Pegmatite pockets contain microcline, green muscovite, black tourmaline (schorl), columbite/tantalite, gem-grade beryl (goshenite and aquamarine), fluorapatite, spessartite, and quartz. Most pockets are filled with montmorillonite clay and range in size from a few inches to several feet.Workings & Production.Eight open cuts. According to the claimant in 1986, several specimens of aquamarine and garnet have been sold.Sample Data.One random chip sample of green mica contained 6.1 percent potassium, 0.15 percent fluorine, 0.00069 percent beryllium, 0.028 percent lithium, 0.016 percent magnesium, and 0.055 percent manganese. Pockets within the pegmatite were observed to contain several indicator minerals of gem-bearing zones. |

Quarry |
Ganderia Domain |
Granite pegmatite. Feldspar quarry first opened in 1916. Later, Kenneth K. Landes, then a Harvard University student, based his research both on this quarry and the Noyes Mountain (Harvard) Quarry in Greenwood and his dissertation revolutionized ideas about how pegmatites crystallize. Landes' paper was "Paragenesis of the Granitic Pegmatites of Central Maine", (American Mineralogist, 1925, v. 10, p. 355-411). Oxford pegmatite field. |

Summary. A gemstone and specimen mine in pegmatite located near the village of Pala, San Diego County, California. The Pala Chief mine has been the source of some of the finest kunzite crystals ever found in southern California. The deposit was first discovered in May of 1903, and developed by several open cuts and minor underground works until mining ceased sometime around 1914. Occasional finds of spodumene and elbaite were made again in the mid 1960's, and notable finds still occur as a result of ongoing surface and underground mining operations. |

Setting. Located near the center of the NE4SW4 Sec. 23 T9S R2W SBM, about 1.25 miles northeast of Pala, the workings are situated low at the southeastern base of Tourmaline Queen Mountain. The principal development was a shallow cut made in the extreme southern exposure of the Douglass pegmatite dike.History. In 1914, Frederick Merrill reported that the American Lithia and Chemical Company owned a half interest in the Douglass claim, with the remaining interest held by T. A. Blakeley, of San Bernardino.In 1951, Richard H. Jahns listed the principal output as gem and specimen quality tourmaline and quartz. In 1958, ownership of the mine was considered undetermined by F.

Many pegmatites occur on Pala Mountain, especially on its southwestern and eastern slopes. Minor diggings have been made on several pegmatites which contain pockets of quartz crystals, and areas of massive rose quartz. Gem quality tourmaline and beryl have also been reported, although very little production was said to have been obtained from any of these dikes. The area is within lands managed for the benefit of the Pala Band of Mission Indians by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). Although Tourmaline Queen mountain has been erroneously referred to as "Pala" mountain in historic literature, the correct location of Pala mountain has appeared on most official maps produced since the late 1940's. Elevation approx. 2128' AMSL. |

Located near the village of North Groton, on the southeast flank of Bald Mountain.Mined for mica beginning in 1863, though not on a serious level until the Hartford Mining company worked it from 1878 to 1888.Later it was a source of beryl, feldspar, and quartz, too.The mine first became known as the Palermo Mine in 1888 when it was purchased by the Palermo Mining Company of Schenectady, New York.When General Electric owned and operated it from 1898 to 1945 it was known as the GE Mine, which produced muscovite, microcline and beryl.The name reverted to Palermo Mine when the Ashley Mining Corp. leased it from GE from 1945 to 1958 and since then that name has remained.It was owned by the Mountain Mining Company until 1973 and leased to N.E. Materials (Rex Howard, who mined the quartz core) and later Peter Samuelson.Since 1973 it has been owned by the Palermo Mining Co. Ltd and operated almost solely for mineral specimens, including many rare phosphate species (Whitmore and Lawrence, 2004).Fuller (1898) reported on a pocket at the mine which was said to be ten feet (3 m) in diameter.A quartz crystal, three feet (90 cm) in diameter, was taken from the roof of the pocket, according to the mine superintendent at the time.85 m long, 42 m wide concordant in a mica - quartz - sillimanite schist. |

A former Be occurrence/mine located just SW of the center of Sec. 8, T3S, R4E, about 8.5 km SW of Custer.Mineralization is in the primary and secondary phosphate-bearing Tip Top granite pegmatite body.Note. Many early reported phosphate species from this locality have been re-identified, particularly regarding manganese, iron, or magnesium end-members. Old references may be at variance with modern nomenclature. Both Campbell, T.J. and Roberts, W.L. (1986) and Loomis, T.A. and Campbell, T.J. (2002) are definitive statements as to species identification.Workings include surface openings comprised of a large open-cast mine pit. |

The Esmeralda deposit was described in detail by Richard H. Jahns in 1957, and summarized by F. H. Weber in 1963. The pegmatite dikes in the mine area occur in medium- to coarse-grained gabbroic rocks. The main dike, which is broadly sinuous, ranges in thickness from 2 feet to nearly 40 feet in the mine area, and is locally very irregular in detail. It trends north-northwest and dips steeply west-northwest in the vicinity of the southern group of workings where it splits into several sub-parallel branches.The principal rock type in all of the dikes is graphic granite which contains scattered, but locally abundant albite, muscovite, and quartz. In most places it forms almost the entire thickness of the dikes. Only in the thickest parts of the main dike are other types of pegmatite prominent. The core of this dike is exposed only in the underground workings beneath the main cuts. Most of it has been mined out, but evidently it formed an irregular mass with a 40 degree to 60 degree south-southwest plunge. In horizontal section its maximum dimensions were about 3 feet by 25 feet, and it appears to have been about 25 feet long, as measured in a down-plunge direction. The core is fundamentally a coarse- to very-coarse grained quartz-spodumene unit. The spodumene crystals, which are scattered irregularly through the much more abundant quartz, are 3/8 inch by 2 inches in average section and 8 inches in average length.Gem-quality beryl, tourmaline, and quartz, the principal minerals mined, were taken mostly from one very large pocket that was encountered in the main workings. Quartz was particularly abundant and the output included one 148-pound crystal and several 40-pound crystals. Some of the quartz crystals were studded with partly intergrown tablets and thick prisms of beryl that ranged in color from white to salmon pink and rose pink. Many of these were as much as 1.5 inches in diameter. The principal pocket also contained many prisms of gem-quality tourmaline, some pink and some an unusual and beautiful blue-green. Several of these crystals are reported to have been at least six inches long and one-half to one inch in diameter. The core also contains 'Lepidolite', muscovite, light-brown to reddish-brown zinnwaldite (rare), and cookeite.The mine comprises two groups of workings, each in a relatively thick part of the main pegmatite dike. The southern group includes north, middle, and south cuts, which are irregular openings on a west-facing hill slope. The south cut, largest of the three, is about 25 feet by 40 feet in plan and 40 feet in maximum depth. An 18-foot drift extends northeast from its innermost face. The northern, or main group is on the opposite side of the ridge, and comprises three open cuts, a small, irregular stope, and about 200 feet of tunnels. The upper cut was developed downward as a stope when the principal mass of pocket pegmatite was encountered. Entry was later made at three progressively lower levels so that the stop ultimately was extended downward to a depth of at least 25 feet beneath the floor of the upper cut. The deeper part of the stope is an irregular room-like opening from which several short drifts project outward.Although unusually fine gem material was taken from the Esmeralda deposit, the total production was rather small. Future production of gem-quality tourmaline and beryl plainly is dependent upon the discovery of other masses of pocket pegmatite, probably in the form of additional core segments. Exploration for such deposits might best be aimed at the down-plunge continuation of the main bulge in the dike. Although the coarse feldspar in the dike may be of potential commercial value, the amount is probably too small for future exploitation. The known amount of spodumene in the dike is trivial, and most of it has been so thoroughly altered that it now contains three percent or less of lithium oxide. Beryl is present in many different parts of the dike, but it is too sparse and too fine-grained in the outer units to warrant attempts at recovery. In the quartz-euhedral perthite pegmatite, where it is coarsest and most abundant, it forms less than 0.02 percent of the rock. |

NaN |
Aggregate quarry in West Baldwin. Granite pegmatite. The quarry was opened in the late 1990s adjacent to an existing gravel pit. The geology of the deposit is complex and has been found to contain a remarkable range of rare phosphate minerals (Thompson et al. 2000). Collecting access to the site requires permission of the quarry owner and ordinarily is limited to organized field trips. |

A large borate-B-As-Sb-clay deposit located in secs. 19, 23 & 24, T11N, R8W, SBM, approximately 7 miles (ca. 11 km) NW of Kramer and 4 miles (6.44 km) NW of Boron. MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 10 meters.Discovered in 1913 by Dr. John K. Suckow. Suckow discovered colemanite when drilling a water well. In 1925, a second water well discovered a huge deposit of borax. Initial production occurred in 1927 and continues. Owned-Operated by the U.S. Borax (Subsidiary Of Rtz Borax Ltd. Of Rtz Corp. PLC (London, UK)), Los Angeles, California (end 1992). Listed as "Kramer Borate deposit" by the USGS-MRDS database. The name was changed to the USGS name to prevent confusion with the other "Kramer pit," (MAS No. 0060290688). Listed in MAS and not on the USGS list (June 1994).Mineralization is a sedimentary deposit (Deposit model. Model code. 260; USGS model code 35b.3; Deposit model name. lacustrine borates), hosted in the Tank Hill Limestone, Ricardo Formation shale, claystone, sandstone and volcanic ash. The orebody is generally lenticular in form with a dip 10-15SE at a thickness of 91.44 meters, depth-to-top of 91.44 meters, width of 804.65 meters and a length of 3,218.6 meters. Controls for ore emplacement included a structurally closed basin and the presence of B-bearing thermal springs during deposition. The deposit was buried by 1,000 to 2,000 meters of continental sediments. Although much of this material had been removed by erosion and subsequent uplift. The shale is greenish. Associated rocks include Pliocene-Miocene Saddleback Basalt. Local rocks include Quaternary alluvium and marine deposits.The ore layer extends over 500 acres. The deposit is a roughly lenticular crystalline mass of borax and kernite containing interbedded claystone. The deposit is completely enveloped by ulexite-bearing shales. Studies have indicated that the borates were deposited in a small structural, non-marine basin, associated with thermal spring activity. The deposit consistently grades 10 to 30% B2O3, and very few other salts occur with the borates. Only borax, kernite, and minor tincalconite are exploited. The overburden thickness ranges from 60 to 150 meters (1992).Local structures include a down warped ancient lake bed, folded and faulted, structural basin, and the Portal Fault (strikes West). Related tectonic structures include the West-central Mojave Desert.Workings included surface and underground openings, with the underground openings subsequently being subhumed by the open pit mining operations.Production data are found in. World Mining Developments 1979-19. 419.Reserve-Resource data are found in Kistler and Smith (1985) and in Roskill (1993).99%+ of all the specimens from this deposit have come from the open pit mine. Very few specimens exist or can be verified from any of the underground mines in the deposit that were operated before the open pit mine began. The exception to this are the many specimens of borax crystals that were almost exclusively from the underground sections of the deposit, and probably the majority of those were collected from shallow flooded stopes in the West Baker mine. Almost all of these specimens have long since dehydrated to white Tincalconite pseudomorphs after borax and have fallen apart and been thrown out. Each year, for many years, the company has collected fresh borax specimens from the underground for the benefit of the local gem and mineral society which are sold at their annual show. Also, most of the Ulexite "clam shells" were collected from the overhead shale underground in the West Baker mine. Almost all other specimens have been collected from the open pit mine itself or from the dumps that lie mostly to the north of the mine.Analytical data results. Averaged 25% B2O3. |

The Tourmaline Queen mine consists of two contiguous patented mining claims, known as the Tourmaline Queen and Tourmaline Queen No. 3 lodes. The private surface area totals 29.19 acres, and the property is located just 1.5 miles north of the historic Asistencia de San Antonio de Pala, in the San Luis Rey River Valley of San Diego County, California. The primary mine workings are located at an elevation of 1617 feet along the steep eastern slope of Tourmaline Queen Mountain which rises 1922' AMSL. The deposit is a complex gem and rare earth element (REE)-bearing pegmatite which is continuous along a northern strike trend traceable for over 3000 feet, and ranges between 10 to 20 feet in thickness, dipping 10 to 40 degrees west, averaging 32 degrees. |

Pegmatite |
Black Hills |
A lithium-niobium/tantalum-tin muscovite mine in pegmatite. Started in 1883. Owned by the Harney Peak Tin Co. This mine is famous for its huge spodumene crystals. Roberts & Rapp (1965), citing Hess (1911), describe a crystal approximately 42 feet long and 3 x 6 feet in cross-section (13 x 0.9 x 1.8 m) that weighed 90 tons (82 T) and yielded 37 tons (34 T) of ore.Originally exploited for muscovite in 1883, but acquired by the Harney Peak Tin Mining Company. Tin was never encountered in economic concentrations and the company collapsed by 1893 in "The Black Hills Tin Scandal".Lithium (spodumene) mining commenced in 1898 and ceased in 1959. Over the years, the mine produced muscovite, niobium, tantalum, beryl and feldspar. |

Pegmatite |
Ganderia Domain |
Granite pegmatite. Oxford pegmatite field.This site was mined in the late 1990s by Cal Birtic and Dick Dionne. They excavated a considerable amount of the pegmatite deposit available at the site, but did not disturb the historical prospect trench excavated by Nate Perry in the 1870s - leaving it as a historical monument. It was felt that - in light of the finds made excavating the bulk of the deposit - the volume of pegmatite left in order to preserve the historic site was not likely to hold anything significant enough to warrant the destruction of the trench. The mineral list which follows is based largely on the finds made during the modern mining. |

According to Barwood (2003), iron was mined in the vicinity of Lynch Station from the American Revolution to the 1880s, and manganese was sought from 1868 intermittently to 1945. Crystallized turquoise specimens found in the Bishop copper prospect first came to the attention of geologists in 1909 (the first published report is Sterrett, 1910), but the origin of the prospect is not reported. According to the map in Barwood (2003) (taken from Espenshade 1954), the coordinates on the map above are those of the Bishop manganese mine. The copper prospect, where the turquoise was found, lies on the south bank of the creek about 300 m southwest of the manganese mine at approximately lat 37.149063475614284, long -79.32098865509035.The locality was rediscovered by collectors in 1941, after which a number of collectors visited the site, and it was opened to collectors on a fee basis in 1963. A significant quantity of specimens was collected over the next decade, but "the site appears to have retreated into obscurity some time after the 1970s and is presently overgrown." [Barwood, 2003]"Although quite a number of turquoise crystals were found in 1962 [in the noted Virginia locality], good crystals are still considered very rare. Much of the material was weathered, and the true turquoise color was not present in most crystals, which made the distinction between poor and good specimens apparent." [Speckels, 1965] |

A former surface and underground Be-Nb-Ta-REE-Li-W-Feldspar-Mica mine with traces of Pb-Zn-Mo-Au, located in the E½ of the NW¼ sec. 10, T.7N., R.3W., about ¼ mile NE of Mitchell Wash. Discovered 1939. First produced 1942.The main pegmatite body is a large, irregular mass that is essentially rectangular in plan. It is about 240 feet long, 140 feet in maximum outcrop breadth, and trends N.55ºE. Its NW side dips 35º to 55º SE, and much steeper southeastward dips along its opposite side suggest a marked downward thinning of the entire mass. The steep dip of the contact at the SW end of the main cut may reflect only a local roll; however, as the same contact dips 35º SE where exposed just beyond the cut, as well as in the nearby adit.The country rock is thinly foliated quartz-mica schist and quartz-mica-amphibole schist, with interlayered epidote and chlorite-rich rocks that appear to include both pyroclastic and intrusive types. The foliation and layering trend ENE to E, and dip 30º or less in both northwesterly and southeasterly directions.Many stringers, dikes, and large, irregular pods of pegmatite are scattered through the older rocks, and a curving pegmatite dike about 160 feet long and 30 to 40 feet wide forms a dsmall ridge SW of the main dike. The pegmatite-wallrock contacts are very sharp in most places, and locally show much evidence of shearing. Small-scale "feathering" of pegmatite into schist is common, and larger irregularities appear in a few places.The main pegmatite comprises 5 well-defined zones. A discontinuous outer selvage, approximately 8 inches (20 cm) in maximum thickness, is a fine- to medium-grained aggregate of quartz, etc. There is also a wall zone, the outer intermediate zone, the inner intermediate zone, and the core (see Jahns 1952 for greater details).Workings include a large main cut at 120 feet long and about 40 feet wide and 18 to 27 feet deep. |

Granite pegmatite. Eastern Mt. Apatite District - Oxford pegmatite field.The Turner Quarries have some lithium mineralization, but do not seem as productive as some of the nearby quarries. The Turner Quarries opened about 1895 by Eli Y. Turner of Auburn, Maine. The three small pits were worked intermittently for less than ten years. Total yield was small and considered of low grade due to iron-bearing minerals such as annite and almandine. The raw spar was shipped via the Grand Trunk Railroad to the Maine Feldspar Company grinding mill at Topsham as the Maine Feldspar Company's grinding mill at Danville was not in operation until 1906. (A mis-reading of Bastin (1910) could lead the historian to think that the Danville feldspar grinding mill was in operation before 1906. It was not operational until 1906.) Edson Bastin of the USGS visited the site in August 1906 and again in October 1907 and Bastin's comments as to what feldspar was being ground where must be taken into context. Currently owned by the City of Auburn, the Turner Quarries are a small part of the 325 acre “Mt. Apatite Park”. Promoted as a multi-use park, it allows hiking, mountain biking, snowshoeing, limited snowmobiling and mineral collecting. Although collecting has no fee and does not require special permission, the City of Auburn Parks and Recreation Department should be contacted for specific collecting rules. |

The expressway section of U. S. Route 7 extending from Interstate 84 in Danbury to exit 12 at U. S. Route 202 in Brookfield was constructed between 1974 and 1976. The section from the Danbury/Brookfield line (from just north of the Agstone Co. marble quarry) to exit 12 at U. S. Route 202 (apparently the "Iron Works district" in Brookfield) traverses mostly sediments along the Still River and not much apparent bedrock. One roadcut is visible on the right of the northbound lanes, about 1 mile south of exit 12. However, Januzzi (1976) and (1994) (who is the only person known to have collected, described, and preserved specimens from here) reports a long list of minerals, many repeated in Weber and Sullivan (1995). |

Pegmatite |
Quarry |
Ganderia Domain |
Granite pegmatite. Oxford field.Primarily a mica quarry with four closely spaced nearly overlapping pits. Noted for its mineral specimen variety and for opaque pink tourmaline fans in quartz and 'Lepidolite' matrix, some of which have been over 50 cm long. No tourmaline pockets have been found at this location to date, although occasional fraudulently labeled transparent rubellite specimens have been strongly promoted as "definitely one-of-a-kind" by their sellers. Locally, these are derisively attributed to "Maine-nibia", "Maine-istan", or "Maine-zil". The eosphorite from this locality was formerly the world record size (37 mm). |

Setting. A rare-earth-element (REE)-gemstone-specimen producing pegmatite occurrence/mine located in the NW¼SW¼ Sec. 33, T6S, R2E, SBM, 2.3 km (1.4 miles) E of Little Cahuilla Mountain (coordinates of record), 3.3 km (2.0 miles) N of Cahuilla Mountain (coordinates of record) and 8.3 km (5.1 miles) NNW of Cahuilla (town), on private (patented) land within a National Forest. MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 100 meters.History. The deposit was first discovered by Bert Simmons in 1902, and is best known for its production of well-crystallized schorl and gem aquamarine, as well as pink tourmaline and spodumene. Two contiguous lode mining claims (Big Pink and Little Blue lodes; MS 4800) are commonly referred to as the Fano Mine, and aggregate approximately 37.54 acres. The property is private land, patented January 29th, 1912 by the Fano Kunzite Tourmaline Mining company.Geology/Mineralogy. The ore body is a pegmatite dike that strikes NW and dips 20SW at a width of 2.44 meters. Local rocks include Mesozoic gabbroic rocks, unit 2 (undivided) and/or pre-Cenozoic granitic and metamorphic rocks undivided.Workings. Workings include surface and underground openings. The deposit has been developed by numerous surface cuts, trenches, and minor underground drifts along the paystreak. |

Piedmontia Domain |
A lithium-rich granite pegmatite most famous for its manganese phosphates (Brush and Dana (1878, 1879, 1890)) and alteration of spodumene (Brush and Dana (1880)), which occurs in scattered crystals in a matrix of cleavelandite. About 40 percent of the spodumene is unaltered; the remainder is altered in various degrees - by very fine-grained, parallel fibers of albite and eucryptite or by further alteration to “cymatolite” - fine-grained, parallel fibers of albite and muscovite. Extreme alteration resulted in replacement by yellow, fine-granular microcline or greasy, greenish "killinite" or "pinite". Individual crystals may show in cross-section a continuum of these states of alterations. |

A pegmatite deposit prospected for gemstones and mineral specimens. The main workings are located approximately 800 feet N of the Riverside/San Diego County line, about 2.9 km (1.8 miles) SE of Iron Spring Mountain (coordinates of record). In the past, the mine has been erroneously reported as being in Chihuahua Valley, San Diego County, but is actually three miles north of the area.NOTE. This mine is not listed in the USGS MRDS database. Coordinates are estimated.The pegmatite was first located by a Mr. Staley in the late 1960's. Josie Scripps became partners with Staley and named the deposit the Blue Chihuahua. Staley and Scripps removed overburden and developed several productive work areas along a thin dike with the assistance of Bob Bartsch and Al Ordway. |

A former U-Cu occurrence/mine located in sec. 19, T37S, R15E, SLM, 6.8 km (4.2 miles) SSE of Chocolate Drop (summit), on Bureau of Land Management administered land (located claim). The deposit was first recognized as replacements of petrified wood in the summer of 1898 by John Wetherill. First recorded claim in 1943 by J. Wiley Redd. Owned by William B. Redd, Colorado (1974); and by the Shumway Brothers, Colorado (1974). Operated by Goode Mining and Exploration. First produced in 1951. MRDS database accuracy for this location is not stated (coordinates are from the plášilite article).Mineralization is a replacement deposit hosted in Late Triassic siltstone and sandstone of the Shinarump Member, Chinle Formation. The orebody is tabular at a thickness of 6ft [1.83 m], a width of 80ft [24.38 m] and a length of 120ft [36.58 m]. The depth-to-bottom is 70ft [21.34 m] and the depth-to-top is 12ft [3.66 m]. Controls for ore emplacement included channel fill, carbonized plant remains, and lithology. Local alteration is bleaching in mudstone. Local rocks include Triassic (1) sedimentary rocks in Salt southeastern Utah. Secondary minerals have formed on the walls of the underground workings.Workings include underground openings with a length of 1500ft [457.2 m] and an overall depth of 80ft [24.38 m]. |

Plumbago North is a new prospect pit in an LCT pegmatite most likely of the spodumene-albite subtype. The pegmatite strikes NW. The pegmatite hosts some of the world's largest spodumene crystals as well as huge (>3m) montebrasite crystals. Given the size of these crystals, the pegmatite body most probably is of similarly huge proportions. Exploration work is on-going (fall 2017). |

Structure. Faults Cutting Li-Anomalous Volcanics Act As Conduits For Li-Rich FluidsCommodity. Unknown form of li in brines. Hectorite (a li-bearing montmorillonite).Deposit. Brines are pumped from beneath the surface into a series of ponds which are then concentrated by solar evaporation. Lithium is recovered from the concentrated brine by precipitation As lithium carbonate. The product is then shipped worldwide from foote's warehouse in mina. ; info.src . 1 pub lit; 2 unpub rept brine consists mainly of sodium chloride with smaller amounts of potassium, magnesium, lithium, and calcium. Magnesium content is relatively low, sot that lithium can be extracted without magnesium recovery.Development. Foote operates solar evaporation ponds and a lithium carbonate plant at silver peak. Product shipped is a white lithium carbonate powder. Exploration for lithium began in 1960 by leprechaun mining and chemical co., continued by foote mineral co. When they took over in 1964 lithium has been produced since 1966. Producing area covers approx. 3 square miles. The number of producing wells and acreage of evaporating ponds has increased steadily since 1966. Brine is concentrated from an average of about 300 ppm to about 6000 ppm li by solar evaporation in a series of shallo W ponds covering nearly 5000 acres. About a year is required to concentrate the brine from 300 to 6000 ppm li. In the processing plant, minor impurities are removed and soda ash is added to precipitate nearly pure lithium carbonate, which is dried, pelletized and trucked 56 miles to railway.Geology. Most likely source of li is from springs under the valley and at the margin of the playa, which contain about 40-50 ppm li. Also, possible volcanic source from leaching of marls and tuffs anomalous in li. Hosted in valley fill; unconsolidated sediments-mostly clays including hectorite.Ore(s). Basin, Both Structural And Topographic. |

A former opencast Li-Sn-Be-Nb-Ta-mica-stone (crushed/broken) occurrence/mine. Started about 1938 and owned by the Foote Mineral Co. The Foote Mine has been closed to collecting for many years and most of the dumps and workings have been reclaimed.Mineralization is a lithia-bearing granite pegmatite (quartz-microcline-spodumene pegmatite), hosted in the Cherryville Quartz Monzonite, schist and amphibolite. Famous for a variety of rare phosphates and silicates.Information on the dumps. "The ‘east dump’ is primarily oxidation zone material that was dumped between 1955 and the early 1980s, but other material was added as space was needed. The north dump (which since 2015 is now covered by a park) was primarily low-grade spodumene pegmatite and albitite tertiary gangue, but oxidized zone material was also added as it was encountered. Nearly all the oxidation zone phosphates were collected on the ‘east dump’, including the type earlshannonite, kingsmountite, mangangordonite, ferraioloite, footemineite, kayrobertsonite, etc., but many of these minerals can be found along the outside rim of the inactive pit in oxidized pegmatite, which is why adding a second locality is redundant. This was a very large open-pit operation, and there are many other smaller dumps in addition to the main two mentioned here. The reason so many type species were found on the east dump is only because it was readily accessible and had the highest concentration of oxidized material. Lithiomarsturite, tetrawickmanite and other species were originally collected on the ‘north dump’." (Jason B. Smith, https.//www.mindat.org/mesg-14-447979.html)Local structures include the Kings Mountain Belt. |

Setting. A lithia pegmatite occurrence located in the NE¼ sec. 16, T7S, R2E, SBM, 1.4 km (0.8 mile) SE of Cahuilla Mountain (coordinates of record)on the SE flank of the mountain, 4.1 km (2.5 miles) NW of Cahuilla (town).History. The deposit was first discovered in the early 1940's, and noted for the occurrence of columbite with cleavelandite. The area was rediscovered by Phil Osborn of nearby Hemet in early 1970’s, and claimed as the Lithia Dyke lode. The mine was later sold, and has been worked intermittently thereafter by various parties as recently as 1997.The deposit primarily consists of two parallel northwest-striking, northeast-dipping complex pegmatites ranging from 1 to 10 feet in thickness.Workings. Development consists of shallow underground workings and surface cuts.Production. Mining efforts have produced several pounds of fine gem-quality elbaite including rubellite, verdelite and multi-colored crystals. Additionally, many large and lustrous schorl crystals, minor amounts of spessartine and almandine garnets; gem spodumene including kunzite and triphane; and morganite beryl crystals were recovered. |

Granite pegmatite. Hall's Ridge, Plumbago-Puzzle Mountain. - Oxford pegmatite field. Originally a prospect for feldspar, but shown to be uneconomic. Later explored by Summit Exploration Company (2006) with similar results. The pegmatite appears increasingly sheared and granulated towards the northwest near the Plumbago Mountain Fault separating Halls Ridge from Plumbago Mountain, itself. Howe Brook follows the northeastern trace of the Plumbago Mountain Fault. (Locality has been erroneously cited as being in Newry, but it is actually located just across the town line in Rumford.) |

The Bolton locality consists of two limestone (marble) quarries about 1/8 mile apart, and a lime kiln and dumps in between the quarries. John Whitcomb (1712-1785) is believed to have been the first to work the deposit sometime in the 1730s. The north and larger quarry was known as the Whitcomb quarry. The south quarry was called the Hildreth Quarry. The Whitcomb quarry was operated until the 1860s and reopened briefly in 1937 for 2-3 years.The quarries are in a limestone (marble) unit enclosed in gneiss. According to Emerson (1917). "Where gneiss is in contact with limestone in the quarries at Bolton a layer of black porphyritic diorite 3 or 4 feet thick is commonly next to the limestone. Where this diorite or the fine biotite granite in the gneiss touches the limestone the layer next to it is in some places composed of vein quartz, but ordinarily it is a thick sheet of scapolite rock, in one place 16 feet thick. Next comes a light green pyroxene hornblende layer and next a layer of boltonite [forsterite] limestone grading into the pure phlogopite limestone."Hansen (1956) provides a good description of the Whitcomb Quarry. "In 1939, when the marble was being actively quarried and the zonal arrangement was well displayed, G. L. Richmond (unpublished report, 1939) examined the deposit and noted the following general relationships . Next to the gneiss is a scapolite zone that contains chiefly scapolite, quartz, apatite, and sphene. This zone grades into a diopside zone that contains diopside, actinolite, tremolite, apatite, and sphene. A boltonite zone follows containing boltonite, chondrodite, serpentine, and spinel; this zone grades into marble containing phlogopite, allanite, graphite, and garnet. Richmond believes the pegmatite invasion was of two main stages. The first solutions that were introduced, he believes, precipitated quartz-lean biotite-andesine pegmatite and produced diopside, boltonite, and chondrodite by reaction with the marble. Actinolite and tremolite were deposited shortly after diopside. Chlorine later was introduced and through reaction with the andesine produced scapolite. Probably at this time sphene and apatite also formed. Finally, as the solutions weakened and the newly formed contact zones could no longer be penetrated, silica was deposited as vein quartz."Part of the notoriety of the locality lies not just in its unusual minerals, including what were thought to be new species, nuttalite and boltonite. Palache (1923) was one of the best reviewers of the locality and he addressed the problem of typical granite pegmatite minerals reported there. "There is an abundance of coarse granite pegmatite boulders in the immediate neighborhood of the quarry but the rock could not be discovered in place. ... Petalite has long been recorded as occurring at Bolton and Dana gives an analysis of this mineral from there [Bolton]. Many specimens labeled petalite were examined in both collections [Harvard and Boston Society of Natural History] studied but none of them proved to be correctly identified. They included platy diopside, microcline, scapolite, and especially a fine grained form of partially altered massive scapolite mixed with calcite. It seems probable that the petalite originally found here was from an erratic similar to the spodumene boulder found in Sterling, Massachusetts." |

Decomposed lithium-rich granite pegmatite. Unlike other pegmatites in this region, this one has completely decomposed feldspar, with "nests" of pocket contents occurring loose in soft clay. According to Jarnot (1995) it produced some of the finest colored gem elbaite and gem beryl from the state.The "quarry" is no longer evident and only dirt dumps are obvious. Barton and Goldsmith (1968) provides a description of this weathered, gem-rich pegmatite that was hand-worked by the Brack family from 1958 to 1963 but is now abandoned. |

Setting. A gemstone and mineral specimen mine developed in pegmatite which is located 7.1 km (4.4 miles) ENE of Ramona. One of the prime locations in North America for natural blue topaz. Major finds were made in 1976 and 1991. It is important to note that spessartite labeled as from the Little Three Mine is found on the adjacent Hercules pegmatite dike, a distinctly separate deposit which is also exposed on the property.History. A very fine topaz-elbaite matrix specimen weighing about 150 pounds was mined in 1905 from the Little Three Mine main dike. The specimen was placed on display for many years at the San Diego Chamber of Commerce until it was moved to the newly opened Natural History Museum. During World War II, the Navy took over the museum, and the displays were crated and stored away. The specimen hasn't been seen again, and it is said to have likely been put onto a junk barge, and dumped into the ocean. |

A former rare mineral specimen quarry. Briefly worked in episodes in the mid-20th century for feldspar.Originally a mineral collector's site in the late 1870's. Opened by Nathan Perry and Edgar D. Andrews in the early 1880's. Originally called Harndon Hill, but the named changed in a complex change of names about 1917. Operated solely by Nathan Perry by 1882. Operated for massive topaz for educational mineral collections in the 1970's by Col. Joseph Pollack of Harrison, Maine.The locality is the type locality for hamlinite, now regarded as a synonym for goyazite.Granite pegmatite. Oxford pegmatite field. Local rocks include Carboniferous alkali feldspar granite (muscovite accessory mineral). |

Deacon Ezra Brainerd started the first "granite" quarries in the town of Haddam when in 1762 he opened quarries on what eventually became known as Quarry Hill in the Haddam Neck section of town on the NE side of the Connecticut River. Like the later Arnold Quarry on Great Hill in Haddam, the Brainerd Quarries (and later entities) became very extensive and worked similar vertically layered biotite and amphibole gneiss. A complex of abandoned workings, that at some point included the Shailer Quarries progressively southward, extends along the steep slopes of the hill NE of Injun Hollow Road from opposite the (much later) Gillette Quarry 1.5 km SE to the bluffs above the former Connecticut Yankee atomic power plant. Generally, the numerous mineral/quarry localities here are mostly old (pre-GPS) and poorly documented without specific names attached to them. Amazingly, despite their age and extent, no geological or topographic maps show them and no one seems to have recorded where one named complex begins and another one ends! The map reference coordinates give the approximate mid-point of these quarry complexes. Because the specific locations of specimens from this area are mostly undocumented, this one page was created to cover all the places. The mineral list covers species found in both the metamorphic rocks and the pegmatites.As at Long Hill and Great Hill along strike a few km south, numerous small pegmatite dikes cross-cut the gneiss. At least one was quarried for feldspar in the mid-1800s by Alfred Brainerd, Jr. Altamura (1987) and Williams (1899) place this quarry at the northern end of the quarry complex, across the road from the Gillette Quarry. These small pegmatites are typically zoned with pure quartz cores and yield aquamarine, "well-terminated" schorl, almandine (based on XRF analyses of one garnet), euhdral microcline, and rarely tiny but well-formed pocket elbaite crystals. |

A feldspar-rose quartz-beryl-muscovite-tantalum occurrence/mine located in the SE¼ sec. 32, T3S, R5E, BHM, 5 km (3 miles) SE of Custer, on private land within a National Forest area. Owned & operated by George Bland (timeframe unknown), and by the Consolidated Feldspar Corporation (timeframe unknown). MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 100 meters.Mineralization is a pegmatite deposit hosted in quartzite. Local rocks include metaquartzite.Workings include surface openings with an overall length of 7.62 meters, an overall width of 3.05 meters, and comprised of an open cut 10 feet deep at the face.The Bull Moose Lode was granted US Mineral Patent #1115883 under Mineral Survey 2126 for 20.338 acres, to the Consolidated Feldspar Corporation on January 4, 1943. |

A former surface Li-Be-Feldspar-Mica mine located near the SE ¼ sec. 9, T.7N., R.3W. Owned by Earl F. Anderson of Mesa, AZ.Mineralization is a very irregular, poorly zoned dike that trends North to NNE & dips steeply westward. It is enclosed by hard, fine-grained, greenish-gray feldspathic hornblende gneiss that is thinly & regularly layered. Its well-developed foliation strikes N.85ºW. & dips 45º to 60ºN. It is 170 feet long by 50 feet wide.The pegmatite body is a connected pair of elongate bulges whose major axes plunge very gently in a northerly direction. It was introduced along fractures, bedding and foliation planes, and along country rock contacts. Emplacement was probably by mechanical injection of liquids, accompanied by local replacement of susceptible types of country rock.The second dike is 8 to 15 feet thick separated from the main dike by 20 to 45 feet of country rock gneiss. As traced NE-ward, it joins the upper bulge of the main dike high on the canyon wall. |

The GE-SE (southeast) is the southern most pit of 3 opened by Perien Dudley in the 1920s in search of pollucite, an extremely rare cesium mineral. All three granite pegmatite quarries are located on Hodgdon Hill in Buckfield. At the time there was demand for cesium to be used in the manufacture of vacuum (radio) tubes. Both the General Electric Company and their main rival, Westinghouse, were buyers of pollucite. Later bismuth replaced pollucite in this application and the mining ended. Modern uses for pollucite are in the preparation of environmentally friendly drill fluids used in oil and gas well development. Cesium is also used in GPS satellites for their extremely precise atomic clocks. Modern efforts by Coromoto Minerals, LLC has confirmed that pollucite is relatively abundant at the GE-SE. However, there is a perplexing question that comes with this occurrence. In almost all other pollucite occurrences worldwide pollucite is associated with even larger amounts of lithium typically in the form of 'Lepidolite', spodumene and petalite. These minerals appear to be absent on Hodgdon Hill. The only lithium mineral encountered at the GE-SE in any quantity has been montebrasite.All three of the pegmatite dikes strike essentially NW. All are near vertical and relatively narrow at +/-7m'. The GE-SE pegmatite has been traced over the surface for 400 meters and measures to a depth of at least 30 meters. |

The Ray Mine is a historical mica mine and famous mineral collecting locality that is located on the slopes of Celo Knob of the Black Mountains. The mine was originally worked as early as the 1890s, however most of the work on the mine was done during the Second World War as mica became a vital resource.Today, the mine is part of Pisgah National Forest and is a designated mineral collecting site, and has been for almost a century. Geologists and hobbyists alike have searched the tailings of the Ray Mine for decades, owing to it rich diversity of minerals and easy access.The mine is best accessed by going to Burnsville through US Highway 19 East, then turning into State Route 197 continuing until you reach State Route 1109. From there you'll continue until you reach conveniently Ray Mine Road from which you'll reach the end which will have a small gravel parking lot that serves as access. You may or may not have a hound dog follow you down the trail, he's there sometime and not there others, but he's friendly. The mine itself is down the trails, there are unfortunately a lot of foot trails that pop up, if you get lost, follow the creek and look for the white rocks. Once you see the white rocks piled high, you've reached the start of the tailings pile.The host rock is a pegmatite, one typical of the type found in other parts of the Spruce Pine Mining District. Granitic in composition, the dominant minerals are feldspar, smokey quartz and muscovite mica. The main target is beryl var. aquamarine, it's been known to occur at gem grade at this site. The other accessory minerals found most commonly include almandine garnet, microcline var. amazonite, tourmaline (typically black here), and rather flashy moonstone. There's a huge list of rare accessory minerals that can be found as well, such as columbite.The best way to approach this mine is to find boulders that have a good bit of quartz in them, and split them apart in search of aquamarines. If you're not really up for that, surface collecting can yield fine specimens as well, especially after a good rainstorm. Compared to the other mines in the area, Ray is most similar to Sinkhole, the differences being Sinkhole is less picked through and has more garnets but almost no aquamarine. Ray is fairly different from Crabtree because Crabtree has far more tourmaline and far fewer garnets or muscovite.There has been some activity at the mine which worked folks into a frenzy, but I think it's a misunderstanding. The National Forestry Service recently went in and closed off some shafts and put new signs up because people kept stealing the old ones. Additionally, while it was extremely dangerous, I presume there was a time when you could go inside the 100-200 feet deep straight drop mineshafts if you were really feeling the urge to. Anyway, all the shafts were closed because of White Nose Fever, an extremely deadly wildlife disease that bat populations all across America have been getting decimated by. To limit the impact, the Forestry Service closed the shafts because the spores of the fungus that cause the disease can stick to bags and clothes and absolutely destroy the roosts inside the mines. Furthermore, the creek was always illegal to dig in, and for good reason, numerous salamanders including the threatened and extremely sensitive Hellbenders make it their home. Also, some standard stuff for Forestry Service lands is that you cannot use power tools, though hammers are alright, and you cannot dig a hole deeper than 4 inches (ca. 10 cm) to help prevent erosion from destabilizing the soil. Additionally, and anyone experienced has heard this before, you cannot sell anything you find there, it has to be for personal use only.The Ray Mine is a spectacular public use site that really showcases what the Spruce Pine District has to offer. It's a must hit for any rockhound in Western North Carolina. |

A Au-Cu-Ag-Mn-Zn-Pb-Se-Cd-S-Te-Bi mining district.Butte (/bjuːt/ BYOOT) is a consolidated city-county and the county seat of Silver Bow County, Montana, United States. In 1977, the city and county governments consolidated to form the sole entity of Butte-Silver Bow. The city covers 718 square miles (1,860 km²). It is served by Bert Mooney Airport with airport code BTM.Established in 1864 as a mining camp in the northern Rocky Mountains on the Continental Divide, Butte experienced rapid development in the late-nineteenth century, and was Montana's first major industrial city. In its heyday between the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, it was one of the largest copper boomtowns in the American West. Employment opportunities in the mines attracted surges of Asian and European immigrants, particularly the Irish; as of 2017, Butte has the largest population of Irish Americans per capita of any city in the United States.Butte was also the site of various historical events involving its mining industry and active labour unions and socialist politics, the most famous of which was the labour riot of 1914. Despite the dominance of the Anaconda Copper Mining Company, Butte was never a company town. Other major events in the city's history include the 1917 Speculator Mine disaster, the largest hard rock mining disaster in world history.Over the course of its history, Butte's mining and smelting operations generated in excess of $48 billion worth of ore, but also resulted in numerous environmental implications for the city. The upper Clark Fork River, with headwaters at Butte, is the largest Superfund site in the United States, and the city is also home to the Berkeley Pit. In the late-twentieth century, clean-up efforts from the EPA were instated, and the Butte Citizens Technical Environmental Committee was established in 1984. In the 21st century, efforts at interpreting and preserving Butte's heritage are addressing both the town's historical significance and the continuing importance of mining to its economy and culture. The city's Uptown Historic District, on the National Register of Historic Places, is one of the largest National Historic Landmark Districts in the United States, containing nearly 6,000 contributing properties. The city is also home to Montana Technological University, a public engineering and technical university. |

Underground nuclear explosion detonated on 10 December 1961 with a yield of 3.1 kilotons. The explosion created a cavity 20 m (66 ft) wide and 50 m (164 ft) high. The floor consisted of melted rock and salt, which was colored shades of blue, green and violet by the intense radiation. |

A small quarry in pegmatite cut into the northwest end of the so-called Eastern Dike of the White Rock District, just above a steep bluff on the south side of River Road. It is just east of the entrance to the Kleen Energy power plant, the lowermost dump was exposed during the blasting used to create this entrance and it can be seen in the trees above the rock face. The oft-reproduced map of the Middletown Pegmatite District in Cameron et al (1954) shows it in the wrong location (much too far east) leading to incorrect directions in Schooner (1958). Stugard (1958) names it as the "Western Quarry". |

Nepheline-syenite pegmatite dikes cutting potassic alkaline rocks (mainly malignites and nepheline microsyenites) in the vicinity of Gordon Butte in the Crazy Mountains.All pegmatite veins are principally composed of K feldspar, nepheline, aegirine, barytolamprophyllite, wadeite, eudialyte, loparite-(Ce), and altered rinkite. Well-differentiated veins contain pockets filled with calcite, fluorapatite, manganoneptunite, Mn-Ti-enriched aegirine, calciocatapleiite, etc. Interaction of the earlier-formed mineral assemblages with deuteric fluids produced Sr-REE-Na-rich fluorapatite, BA-Fe titanates, REE-bearing carbonates, muscovite-zeolite pseudomorphs after nepheline, re-deposition of Ba in the form of hyalophane, baotite and neptunite, etc. |

Pegmatite |
Pegmatite |
Ganderia Domain |
Granite pegmatite. Plumbago-Puzzle Mt., summit ridge. - Oxford pegmatite field.The first Rose Quartz crystals known in the world were found at Mount Mica Quarry about 1913-1915. The second locality for genuine rose quartz crystals in the world, the Dunton Gem Quarry, Newry, produced its first crystals in 1927. A third world locality was discovered in 1942, at the Rose Quartz Crystal locality, by George Crooker. Rose Quartz crystals were found at the Nevel Quarry, Newry and in the Red Hill Quarry Group, Rumford, Maine in 1949. Rose Quartz crystals were not known in Brazil until 1958.(Note. This site is located near the Broome and Whitehall #1 and #2 prospects.) Pegmatite 24 is exposed over a vast area of southern Plumbago-Puzzle Mountain and many prospects have been dug into it. The species list includes all of those tiny, closely spaced exposures, although most of the reported species come from the Rose Quartz Crystal Locality. |

A former gemstone and specimen occurrence/mine located in the SW¼NE¼ sec. 25, T18S, R12E, MDM, 1.2 km (0.8 miles; 3,937 feet) SSW of Santa Rita Peak (coordinates of record), at the headwaters of the San Benito River, on formerly private (patented) land, now turned over to the state of California. MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 100 meters.Mineralization is a gemstone deposit. The deposit consists of natrolite veins cutting a glaucophane schist inclusion in a serpentinite body. Local rocks include ultramafic rocks, chiefly Mesozoic, unit 3 (Coast Ranges and Western Klamath Mountains).Note. The majority of specimens from this locality have been prepared by dissolving away the enclosing natrolite with hydrochloric acid.Workings include unspecified underground openings (the topo map reflects a large shaded area of mining activity with 1 adit symbol labeled "gem mine" at this point). |

Setting. A gemstone mine located in the S½NW¼ Sec. 13, T9S, R3E, SBM, situated southwest of the crest of Aguanga Mountain. The property consists of a single unpatented lode mining claim aggregating 20 acres, more or less.History. The Maple Lode is a gem-bearing pegmatite deposit first discovered by Bert Simmons around 1902, and later claimed by Bill Dyche. The deposit was worked by Dyche and his men for gem-quality blue tourmaline and blue topaz. The main working face consisted of a shallow adit which extended nearly 27 feet into the ledge following a series of pockets.The deposit was claimed again in 1915 by Fred Rynerson who briefly worked the ledge with Henry Stenbock. Rynerson discovered one exceptionally fine blue topaz crystal which measured 1 inch tall by one half inch wide, associated with blue tourmaline, about 10 feet back along the east wall of the underground workings.The mine was later claimed as the Maple Lode, and worked for several years by Mr. MacMillan of Sunshine Summit. MacMillan was said to have developed a second adit about 8 feet above the original underground workings, producing a small quantity of gem material. This new adit was described as an irregular, partially gophered working which extended back nearly 20 feet from the surface, and was connected to the lower main adit by a short raise. The main adit was also extended an additional 23 feet underground, although these workings were said to have partially caved afterward. MacMillan sold his claim to Del Flatz of San Diego in 1959.In the late 1970's and early 1980's, Roland Reed and several partners worked the deposit using heavy equipment to strip overburden and develop a large bench cut along the pegmatite exposure, removing most of the old underground workings during the process. A claim to the deposit was located by Roland Reed and John E. Gregory of Alpine on November 2, 1985. Work by Reed and others produced several topaz crystals ranging in color from medium blue to pale green, and a few small matrix specimens of topaz on 'Lepidolite' and albite were also recovered. Additionally, numerous blue and blue-pink bicolor elbaite crystals were discovered, usually occurring as slender gem pencils up to 5cm long, some of them being a bright sky-blue color. A few pinkish-red colored apatite crystals were also found, up to 7.5cm in size and displaying a tabular habit. Reed later transferred his interest in the claim to Gregory on July 28, 2000. Gregory transferred his interest to Cal Graeber and Jeffrey Kent in 2009. On September 01, 2021 the unpatented Maple Lode claim became invalid due to the Graeber & Kent's failure to file annual papers and fees on the claim required by BLM under the federal mining laws. The Maple Lode was subsequently relocated by Christopher Wentzell on September 23, 2021 and the mine/claim is currently (2023) owned by Wentzell and registered as BLM Serial #CA105275076. |

The Royal pegmatite deposit was first prospected around 1902 by Bert Simmons of Oak Grove. In 1914, Frederick Merrill incorrectly reported the Royal mine location as being in Sec. 18, T. 13 S., R. 5 E. Merrill also characterized the amount of 'Lepidolite' as quite limited, and described the mine as never having been productive. At this time, the mine was said to be owned by Henry Blumenberg, Jr., of Los Angeles. George Kunz (1904) reported "amblygonite" in Precious Stones, Mineral Resources of the United States. Calendar Year 1903, p. 313, but the chemical analysis is 75% indicates end-member montebrasite. In 1917, Waldemar T. Schaller reported that Simmons had obtained green tourmalines of gem quality.In 1963, F. H. Weber described the deposit as a pegmatite dike that trends northwestward and dips gently southwest, and enclosed in Bonsall tonalite. The dike is particularly exposed along strike for several hundred feet, showing the upper and middle parts of the dike. The border zone of the upper part is said to consist of fine-grained pegmatite composed of perthite, quartz and muscovite, which grades downward into an intermediate zone of medium grained perthite, quartz, muscovite and schorl. The thickness of the upper zone ranges from 4 to 5 feet, while the middle zone of the dike averages between 1 and 2 feet thick. The middle part of the dike, or core zone, is characterized as coarse grained perthite and quartz with relatively large proportions of 'Lepidolite', plus small amounts of grass green tourmaline, as well as pink and blue crystals occurring within the 'Lepidolite' mass, averaging less than 1 inch in length. Weber described the workings at this time as several shallow northwest trending cuts made over a distance of 100 feet along the strike of the vein. The main cut, near the middle of the workings was described as 20 feet long, 10 feet wide, and 5 feet high at the face, from which a gentle decline had been developed down dip for at least 15 feet within a 'Lepidolite' ledge.On June 2, 1983, a claim to the deposit was made by Richard W. Olson, Byron Weege, Dave Cassianni, Richard Casey, and Otto Komarek, and named the Thursday lode in honor of the occasion. Between 1991-92, several large slabs of 'Lepidolite' were mined and manufactured into decorative tables by Harold Butler. These 'Lepidolite' tables measured up to 4 feet across by 1.5 feet thick and had polished tops. Butler also reported blue tourmaline crystals occurring as slender gem pencils up to 10 inches long.Renewed exploration efforts began in 2003, carried out primarily by Thomas C. Hess of Murrieta, under the direction of owner Richard Casey. Work has focused on enlarging and deepening the old main cut to get below the 'Lepidolite' layer in hopes of encountering pockets of gem-quality tourmaline and related minerals. Using hand tools to extend the bottom of the cut, Hess, along with the help of others, had produced approximately 20 tons of 'Lepidolite' by August of 2007. Several solid pieces of deep purple 'Lepidolite' were recovered, some of which weighed in excess of 300 lbs. Most of the 'Lepidolite' has been well suited for lapidary uses. Associated lithia minerals include greenish blue amblygonite, and altered laths of pale pink spodumene. |

Granite pegmatite. Grafton field. Hosted by muscovite-sillimanite-staurolite schist. Located on Isinglass Mountain. First commercial mica quarry in U.S. (often cited as 1803, but published records seem to suggest a few years later than that date). Mined for feldspar beginning in 1912, and later for beryl as well. feldspar mining was intermittent and was active in the mid-1960s, ending by about 1969.Noted for its excellent vista views and steep dumps with tunnels and galleries into the granite pegmatite. Collecting is permitted after paying a fee ($25 per adult in 2011).The earliest discovery of the famous gummite specimens from this locality was announced by Benjamin Shaub in 1936. "Recent work in mining for feldspar at the Ruggles' pegmatite has exposed numerous uranium-bearing ... minerals." The very first specimens were apparently collected by Ray and Alvin Schortmann who lived not far from Ben Shaub in Northampton, MA (B. Shaub, pers. comm., 1989). The abundance of gummite was one of the factors which influenced the Schortmann brothers to start a mineral business, beginning about 1938, that lasted for about 25 years.As of June 2022, the property was listed for sale. from facebook. Ruggles Mine is under new ownership as of Wednesday, July 19th, 2023. The giftshop and the museum have been completely ransacked and destroyed before the mine recently changed hands. |

The Carmelita mine is located near the southeast end of the crest of a prominent northwest trending granite ridge in the SE4 and SW4 of Section 26, T9S, R3E, SBM; about 5 miles (7.9 km) north of Warner Springs, San Diego County, California, USA.Situated an elevation of 4800' AMSL, the exposure is covered with dense chaparral amidst small stands of Coulter pine. The primary development is in the center portion of a continuous northwestward striking pegmatite vein up to 400 feet across, that is at least 2000 feet long and has an average dip of 40° south.The pegmatite is enclosed in granodiorite, which contains numerous septa and inclusions of platy, impure quartzite and mica-schist; and is thought to be underlain by gabbroic country rock. |

Granite pegmatite. Western Mount Apatite District - Oxford pegmatite field. Historically unnamed this site was developed into a larger excavation in the early 1990s by Irving "Dudy" Groves and Dick Dionne. This is not the Androscoggin Tourmaline Prospect as that locality is properly called the Wade Quarry. |

A beryl prospect in the Oxford pegmatite field. Recent mining during 2000/2003 has uncovered many secondary phosphates previously unknown from this locality.Recent mining in the 2010's has added several new mineral species. Micro indicolite (tourmaline) was found in 2019, additional small pieces of tourmaline have been found since. |

Pegmatite |
Mine |
Central Colorado–Taos Trough, Sangre de Christo Mountains |
A Ta-Be-Li-Sn occurrence/mine in pegmatite located in the E½SW¼ sec. 29, T23N, R11E, NMM, in the western part of the Picuris Range, about 20 miles SW of Taos. Discovered in 1900 and first produced in 1920. Previously owned by Arthur Montgomery (100%) (1975). Owned by the University of New Mexico (from whom permission to collect is required). The USGS MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 10 meters.Mineralization is a tabular, zoned pegmatite dike hosted in schist and quartzite. The ore body strikes N45W and dips 6S at a thickness of 17 meters, width of 91 meters and length of 914 meters, covering an area of 10 HA, and with a depth-to-top of 0 meters. Ore body No. 1 is an irregular pegmatite and ore body No. 2 is a replacement body. The primary mode of origin was magmatic differentiation. Primary ore control was igneous and the secondary control was fracturing. This pegmatite has the largest occurrence of microlite in the U.S. Local rocks include metamorphic rocks. |

The McDermitt caldera center (“McDermitt”) is a polygenetic mid-Miocene volcanic center along the border of northern Nevada and southern Oregon, USA, and is one of the first silicic centers associated with the Yellowstone hotspot. McDermitt was active during the main stage of the voluminous Columbia River Basalt Group eruptions, and Steens Basalt forms the base of the Miocene volcanic section. Magmatism climaxed with the caldera-forming eruption of the ~ 400 km3 compositionally variable McDermitt Tuff at 16.35 ± 0.03 Ma. (Starkel, W.A. (2014))[1] |

Located in the N2SE4 Sec. 24 T9S R2W SBM, the mine is on the north flank of Hiriart Mountain. Developed by 4 shallow cuts in the northern part of the Vanderberg pegmatite where the dike strikes north-northwestward, dips moderately west, and is up to 20 feet thick. Gem minerals reported include spodumene (primarily kunzite) pale-green and pink beryl, and pale yellow quartz. Additional minerals are tourmaline, 'Lepidolite', molybdenite, bornite, and large clear crystals of microcline. The White Queen dike also strikes across the property. |

A former Hg mine with Li occurrence located in secs. 27, 28, 33 & 34, T47N, R37E, MDM.[6] The McDermitt mine itself is a large open-cut mercury mine (active 1975-1990), but the name is often used to more broadly include the adjacent older Cordero mine complex.The Cordero mines and the McDermitt mine are located in the Opalite mercury mining district in the United States of America. The Opalite mercury mining district encompasses locations that are both in the state of northern Nevada and in the state of southern Oregon. The deposits are all related to a large volcanic center (caldera complex) called the McDermitt caldera complex. Mines in the Opalite district include those listed below[1][2][3].Bretz Mine, Malheur Co., OR Cordero Mine, Humboldt Co., NV Corderito Mine, Humboldt Co., NV Crofoot Project, Humboldt Co., NV Disaster Peak Property, Humboldt Co., NV Lenway Mine, Humboldt Co., NV McDermitt Mine, Humboldt Co., NV Opalite Mine, Malheur Co., OR Ruja Mine, Humboldt Co., NVThe Cordero mine was the first discovery of mercury in the district, quickly followed by the Bretz and Opalite mines to the north. These were both underground and open cut operations. In the 1970s, mercury was discovered in tuffaceous lake sediments adjacent to and just north of the Cordero mine. This deposit was exploited exclusively by open cut mining. It was named the McDermitt mine, and operated by Placer Amex until acquired by Barrick Gold Corporation. The McDermitt mine was the last operating primary mercury production mine in the USA when it ceased operations in 1990. The patented mining claims of the McDermitt mine were still owned by Barrick Gold as of March 2016, but the mine is closed and there is no mining activity in the district.Mineralization is a Hg deposit with ancillary Li hosted in the Miocene Cordero Rhyolite. Cinnabar represents 50% of the ore and corderoite is 50%. U- and Li-enriched rhyolite was observed.[6]The following summary prepared by Michael Cox is drawn from the extensive body of references and more than five weeks of detailed field examination of the pit during the period of late 2014 to early 2017.The McDermitt open pit mine was excavated in lacustrine and/or fluvial tuff under a thin mantle of recent (Pleistocene) alluvial gravel. According to Giraud[4] (1986) and McCormack[5] (1986) the tuff was only locally reworked by water prior to consolidation. Fragments are nearly always angular, suggesting the source material was unconsolidated pyroclastic debris rather than eroded consolidated rock layers. The parent rock is pyroclastic, with angular fragments of peralkaline rhyolite that contains alkali feldspar phenocrysts, sometimes several centimeters long or larger. During violent gaseous eruptions, the parent magma was fragmented at the vent, blown upward, and deposited on the surface, including into and over lakes and streams. The resulting pyroclastic ash and debris was laid down on the surface of the land existing at the time and later consolidated into rock. The volcanic rocks vary with depth and age, but the main ash deposit is broadly called McDermitt Tuff by Henry et al.[6] (2016), and according to them, the main eruption of tuff occurred at 16.35±0.03 Ma. After the main tuff eruption, the volcanic source chamber collapsed to form an oval surface depression called a caldera. The McDermitt caldera measures 25 miles (ca. 40 km) north-south by 14 miles (ca. 23 km) to 19 miles (ca. 31 km) east-west. Hydrothermal fluids then deposited the antimony and mercury mineralization and silicified the parent tuff. This occurred at about 15.7±0.4 Ma, based on Noble et al.[7] (1988) dating adularia from the open pit ore. Sometimes the silica and ore replacement is so thorough the parent rock textures and grains can no longer be recognized, even in thin sections under the microscope. |

Summary. A series of quartz-Be-columbite-gemstone pegmatite occurrences located in Sections 29, 30, T6S, R2E, SBM, 2.0 km (1.2 miles) NNE of Little Cahuilla Mountain (coordinates of record) and about 10.6 km NNW of Cahuilla (town), along the W side of the Allesandro Trail. MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 100 meters. Workings include surface and underground openings comprised of open cuts along strike to 6.1 meters deep.History. In 1929, the discovery of gem-bearing pegmatites producing radio-grade quartz crystals and blue to blue-green beryl (aquamarine), led to the location of the Beryl Crystal and Silica Beryl group of mining claims. [1][2][3]. The exact location of specific workings is unknown, but many old "pits" and a small adit have been found within the Audrey Lynn mine area, and are generally attributed to Schindler's work, and fit the timeline regarding weathering effects and likely tools utilized or mining methodology.[4]Mineralogy/Geology. Mineralization is hosted in granite. The ore body is a pegmatite dike that strikes NW and dips 40SW at a width of 3.05 meters, Local rocks include pre-Cenozoic granitic and metamorphic rocks undivided and/or Mesozoic gabbroic rocks, unit 2 (undivided).Production data. 200 pounds beryl; 10 pounds pink and green tourmaline; 50 pounds black tourmaline; 500 pounds quartz crystals; 100 pounds rose quartz. |

A former clay (hectorite) mine located in sec. 6, T26N, R5E, SBM, 13.2 km (8.2 miles) ENE of Pyramid Peak (coordinates of record) and 14.1 km (8.8 miles) NNW of Death Valley Junction, in the Amargosa Desert along the Amargosa River. MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 10 meters. Workings include unspecified surface openings/operations. The mine property is currently under claim.In the portion of the deposit exposed by the open pit, brown hectorite occurs coating the surfaces and partially filling the void spaces in a vuggy carbonate breccia. The depositional mode of the hectorite is unclear, but it may be hydrothermal based on the lateral discontinuity of mineralization. Local rocks include Quaternary alluvium and marine deposits. |

A barite mine located 1½ miles West of Caddo Gap. Ore is bedded barite in Stanley Shale. Started 1958 and reopened in 1978, closing in 1980. Workings featured open pits and cuts. Deposit. Intense folding and faulting has resulted in a highly irregular ore body. Average length of the mineralized zone (168 meters) is measured along the strike of the ore body. Average width of the ore zone (171 meters) is measured along the dip plane of the ore body. The minimum depth to the mineralized zone is the floor of the existing pit (a depth of 30 meters from the original land surface). Total estimated depth to the ore body is estimated to be 191 meters from the surface. General strike and dip of the ore zone is west-northwest dipping 50 degrees south.Geology. Chert referred to in record 2/line 01 is described As a cryptocrystalline, dense, siliceous material. |

Quarry |
Ganderia Domain |
Granite pegmatite. Plumbago Mt. - Oxford pegmatite field. (At base of summit ridge to north of Dunton Quarry on Hall's Ridge.) Opened about 1952 for beryl. Possibly the largest beryl producer in the State, probably exceeding the Bumpus Quarry although records are probably inaccurate due to the secrecy associated with beryl production in general. Land currently owned by Plumbago Timber and Quarries LLC which permitted use of new mineral discovery information to appear on mindat. |

Pegmatite |
Quarry |
Ganderia Domain |
A lithium rich granite pegmatite opened for specimen and gem mining in 1962. It is not the same locality as the nearby Gotta-Walden prospect, which is a mica, feldspar, beryl prospect operated before and during the early 1940s. The quarry was opened up early in 1962 by two young miners who leased the property from Mr. Walden. The ledge had never been previously blasted but outcropped prominently on top of the hill. |

Setting. The Mesa Grande mine is located near the center of the N/2 Sec 20, T11S, R2E, SBM, nearly 2.5 miles (4 km) northwest of Mesa Grande on the steep east slope of Gem Hill within the boundaries of the DeForest Ranch property, located immediately adjacent to the Angel Ranch property. Livestock raising activities have traditionally dominated the use of surrounding lands, and although conflicts between ranchers and miners occasionally erupt over mineral rights, local ranch hands have played an important part in the development of the gemstone resources in the area.Geology. The geology of the Mesa Grande mine consists of a local series of three continuous pegmatite dikes averaging 2 to 4 feet in thickness, enclosed within a well-defined gabbroic micropluton. These dikes follow a general north to northwest strike and display an average dip of between 20 and 35 degrees west to southwest. These vein-like bodies are clearly exposed and traceable along the available surface exposure and should be considered prominent southern extensions of the productive Himalaya dike system. The gem-bearing portions of the deposit are located within the central portions of these dikes, characterized as quartz-subhedral perthite pegmatite forming distinctly localized areas of abnormally enlarged crystal structure.History. The Mesa Grande mine workings were reported to have originally opened sometime between 1903 and 1904, by the Mesa Grande Tourmaline and Gem Company. The officers of the company were. President, Frank A. Seabert, whom spent a large portion of his time at the property; Vice-President, Horace Wilson, a well known business man of Los Angeles; Superintendent, C. O. McCarroll, pioneering California gemologist; Secretary, H. E. Felkenson of Southwestern Securities Company; and Los Angeles Banker, Frank A Liddell. The mine yielded a modest amount of pink and purple tourmaline, beryl (aquamarine and goshenite), and quartz (white and smoky). At least 1100 carats of tourmaline gems were reported to have been cut and sold. The principal development during this period was a cut 60 feet long, 15 to 40 feet wide, and 25 feet deep. From this main cut was driven an adit which extended 80 feet underground into the mountain, cutting through the first two dikes, at which point an appended drift followed the southernmost pegmatite to the northwest for nearly 180 feet. Other cuts and minor adits were driven along the surface outcroppings of the three main dikes, extending down dip no greater than 20 feet. Work on the property by the company had ceased around 1910.Recent Activities. In November of 1995, several parties involved in consolidation of various gem-bearing properties on Gem Hill began surface reconnaissance and detailed exploration of the Mesa Grande mine. The original mine workings had recently been partly uncovered by the land owner's ranch laborers, so it was decided that work should be focused at these locations. Field work was primarily conducted by Erik Cordova and Scott Ritchie of the San Diego Mining Company.At this point in time, and apparently since 1957, existing underground workings had become inaccessible due to ongoing caving of decomposed pegmatite and gabbro. Some small pink tourmalines of gem quality were discovered on the brush-covered dumps of the lower, northernmost adit. Additional exploration along the surface exposure of the upper, southernmost pegmatite occurred for a period of 4 weeks.Within the second week of exploration, Cordova discovered signs of a large gem bearing pocket and began to systematically excavate at the point of discovery. With the weather being exceedingly both cold and wet, work upon the surface was stopped prematurely - although not before several days of digging had unearthed several large smoky quartz crystals nearly a foot in length, as well as several kilos of fine gem-schorl prisms measuring up to 7 inches in length. Additionally, many fine spessartine nodules of exceptional orange color and of top facet quality were recovered. The largest of these crystals was nearly "golf ball" sized in its proportions. Some of these fine garnet crystals were also found on an aesthetic matrix of microcline and cleavelandite accented by cookeite, making for attractive mineral specimens.Several hundred kilos of quartz crystals, a dozen kilos of slender black tourmaline (schorl) crystals, and three kilos of deep orange garnets (spessartine) were recovered. In all, over forty buckets (5 gallon capacity) of water screened pocket material were taken out. Unfortunately, most of this material was stolen by a self-proclaimed "gemstone mining expert" — a con man from Arizona unwittingly hired by the mine owner to ensure equity of the bonanza. Several months later, a pale pink beryl crystal (var. morganite) measuring approximately 2 inches across was found on the dumps by one of the miners from the nearby Himalaya mine. It was apparent that much gem-material was lost during the ensuing frenzy, having been hastily excavated and pushed over the edge with the backhoe in a mad rush to empty the pocket. |

Granite pegmatite. Metamorphic country rocks (including Conway Schist) contain actinolite, almandine, biotite, calcite, diopside, dravite, ilmenite, kyanite, muscovite, quartz, rutile, siderite-ankerite, staurolite, and zoisite (Shaub, 1954 and V. King notes). Shaub also listed "aragonite" and other species, but the report is certainly in error. This historic site was noted for terminated spodumene crystals, collected in the mid- to late-1800s and now found in museums around the world, although it was not the only historical locality for terminated spodumene crystals in the town. |

Setting. The Hercules mine is located 7.2 km (4.5 miles) ENE of Ramona, encompassing the southern slope of a hill with an elevation of 2480 feet from which the coast of the Pacific Ocean is visible. The south side of the hill slopes steeply towards the southwest, following the general dip of the pegmatite intrusions which outcrop along the top and just north of the hill's ridge. The location is mainly in the S2SE4NE4 Sec. 8 T13S R2E SBM. The site borders the Little Three property on the north.The Hercules pegmatite is north of the Little Three dike, and is primarily known for its production of bright orange spessertine. The pegmatite has been primarily developed where it dips down onto the Little Three mine property.Geology. The area of the Hercules mine lies in the mid-southern portion of the Peninsular Range province. The most abundant rocks found in this area are the many granitic plutons which constitute the southern California batholith. Other rocks found in the area are meta-sedimentary and meta volcanic rocks the antedate the batholith and form a wide spread but generally minor part of the terrain. The length of time between the injections of the gabbro and that of the final granite in the batholith is believed to have been approximately 10 million years. The batholith is made up of many separate injections. The succession of intrusions is from gabbro to tonalite, to granodiorite, and finally granite.Discrete pegmatite bodies occur throughout the batholith and in some cases with the older meta-sedimentary and meta-volcanic rocks. The geology of the Hercules mine is comprised of partial alluvium overlying a bed rock consisting of large solid quartz monzonite and gabbroic xenoliths in decomposed quartz monzonite, containing complex pegmatite intrusions.The granitic pegmatite intrusions found at the Hercules mine produce a variety of solid solution series minerals, occurring in both gem and specimen quality, usually in kaolinite filled miarolitic cavities (pockets). Minerals found include. Beryl; Clinozoisite; Garnet; 'Lepidolite'; Muscovite; Microcline, Cleavelandite; Quartz; Stibiotantalite; and Elbaite. These pegmatites appear as a localized swarm in which the individual dikes run parallel to each other. The Hercules dike strikes northwestward and dips about 45 degrees south, and averages 2-3 feet in thickness. The ledge is traceable for over 1000 feet along strike.History. The Hercules was originally located in August of 1903 by A. W. Pray, S. G. Ingle, and Harry Titus of Ramona, as 2 end-to-end north-northwest trending lode mining claims. Most of the early development work was done by Pray.Between 1904 and 1938, development consisted of a 200 foot tunnel, and a 50 foot tunnel on the vein. These working were said to have produced about 15 pounds of gem quality spessartite and 1/2 pound of green beryl. When cut, the spessartine gems ranged from about 1 to 6 carats. By 1939, the claim was owned by W. H. Davis of Pasadena, who reported the mine to be idle.In 1954, Robert B. Winstead and George Converse of Ramona relocated a single north-trending claim. Workings were described at that time as several shallow open cuts and a 50 foot adit driven northwestward from the south border of the claim. (include John Sinkankas work)From mid-1957 to the early 1990's, the Spaulding family recovered many kilos of spessartine from the Hercules dike. (add Sinkankas; Gray developments)In December 1995, the San Diego Mining Company began probing inside an old brush covered and partially caved adit which revealed the continuation of a large gem pocket that had been discovered and worked by hand many decades earlier. The single gem pocket produced nearly two kilograms of mixed grade spessartine garnet, approximately 40 grams being of facetable quality material, along with large amounts of associated minerals such as smoky and citrine quartz, black tourmaline, cleavelandite, microcline, and muscovite. |

The Wausau Intrusive complex is a Proterozoic group of plutons ranging from nepheline syenite to granite in composition. There are at least 4 major intrusive events. These are, from oldest to youngest, the Stettin complex of syenites to nepheline syenite, the syenitic Wausau Pluton, the quartz syenite of the Rib Mountain Pluton, and the alkali granite of the Nine Mile Pluton. Rib Mountain is a large roof pendant of quartzite caught up in this igneous body. The igneous rocks are often miaroltiic and frequently contain complex pegmatites. They are deeply weathered to grus, and often quarried. |

Note. This locality is on residential private property. Collecting is by insured club appointment only, it is not open to casual collecting and is posted no trespassing. Trespassers will be prosecuted.It is a group of small pegmatite quarries that boasted mineralogy and specimen quality similar to the famous Gillette Quarry across the river in Haddam Neck. Both are zoned pegmatites with cleavelandite and lithium enrichment and feature beryls with clear to pale green cores and pink overgrowths among other minerals.Major activity apparently began around 1960 because it is mentioned briefly in Schooner (1961) but not at all in Schooner (1958). However, there was activity before then, as Williams (circa 1945) mentions that "At a Feldspar prospect on land of a Mr. Elly near Turkeyhill Road, green tourmaline in muscovite, 'Lepidolite', smoky quartz, fine transparent crystals." Indeed, according to town records, the quarry was once owned by William Ely, and was sold to Ernest McNutt, by his daughter Alice Ely, in 1944. Ernest McNutt rented the quarry to the Hewitts for some years then sold it to them on March 28, 1960. |

Pegmatite |
Mine |

An open cut Be-Li-Ta-Nb-feldspar-mica-phosphates mine located in the N.½ of NW¼, sec. 31, T.8N., R.2W., along the steep northern slope of Independence Gulch. The mine is now closed; however, it is under active claim for specimen reclamation. Owned by Earl F. Anderson and Sidney B. Anderson of Mesa, AZ; subsequently held under claim by David Shannon, Mesa, for specimen retrieval.Mineralization is the Midnight Owl, coarsely crystallized, lithium-bearing pegmatites. Several pegmatite dikes are exposed in the mine area, where they form a belt that trends nearly due east. Though broadly tabular, they are very irregular in detail, and bulges, thick, stubby projections, and long, thin branches are common.The principal dike trends east, but its component segments and major branches are elongated in northeasterly, easterly, and southeasterly directions. It terminates westward in a very large bulge that measures 80 by 140 feet in its nearly rectangular outcrop plan, and a slightly smaller bulge marks the junction of major branches in the eastern part of the mine area. In the central part of the area is a third bulge, 90 feet long and about 40 feet in outcrop breadth, and from it major branches extend southward and northwestward. Between bulges, the main dike is 15 to 25 feet in outcrop breadth. Most observed contacts between pegmatite and country rock are steeply inclined, but gentle to moderate dips appear along the margins of the major bulges.The pegmatites were introduced along fractures, bedding and foliation planes, and along country rock contacts. Emplacement was probably by mechanical injection of liquids, accompanied by local replacement of susceptible types of country rock.The country rock in the mine area is mainly a dark gray quartz-hornblende-mica gneiss, in which a well-defined foliation trends northeast and dips steeply northwest through most of the mine area. Numerous thick layers of silvery gray quartz-muscovite schist are exposed on the hillside immediately West of the main pegmatite body. The schist contains scattered metacrysts of garnet, chloritoid, and altered staurolite. Schorl is locally abundant in both of these rock types near the pegmatite contacts. The schist and gneiss occur as inclusions and septa in most of the pegmatite dikes, and are particularly abundant near the margins of some bulges. A large septum of schist is exposed in the northwest part of the Upper cut, and several wall rock inclusions have been encountered in the lower cut. Two tabular masses, 3 feet in average thickness, of greenish-gray, punky-appearing rock may be post-pegmatite dikes of intermediate to basic composition.Significant additional data regarding the pegmatite, by zones, is provided by Jahns (1952).Workings include an irregular upper cut and a lower cut. Nearly all the mining has been done in the thick eastern and western bulges of the main pegmatite body. The upper cut is in the northeast part of the West bulge and is 40 by 50 feet and 25 feet maximum depth. The lower cut, about 150 feet to the East, is a slightly smaller opening in the central part of the East bulge. |

There are two cluster of granite pegmatites prospects here, north and south of a forest road. The northern cluster is best known for elbaite, 'Lepidolite' and rare red fluorite, the southern prospects have excellent microlite and rare gahnite. Note. Stugard's (1958) placement of Hollister at pegmatite 69 (Table 8, p. 646) is too far west according to Betts (1999). Locality coordinates are for the northern cluster, the southern cluster is centered at 41.642151,-72.589835; all are based on state LiDAR mapping. Private property and closed to collecting. |

Setting. The Sly Rick prospect (aka. Green Centipede circa 1980) is located in the NE¼ sec. 30, T6S, R2E, SBM, 2.0 km (1.3 miles) N of Little Cahuilla Mountain and about 11.8 km NNW of Cahuilla (town). The Cahuilla Mountain district is located with the San Jacinto Mountain Range in Riverside County at an elevation ranging between 3,000 and 5,000 feet. Most of the district, which consists of 4 mountains (Thomas, Cahuilla, Little Cahuilla, and Red Mountains) is within the San Bernardino National Forest. The area is relatively remote, and dense vegetation consisting of chaparral has precluded most exploration activities, especially on the steep north facing slopes.Geology. The Cahuilla Mountain district is dominated by the large Cretaceous-aged Cahuilla Valley Pluton and Bautista Sill consisting of quartz monzonite (adamellite), norite, and tonalite that have invaded older migmatitic schists, gneisses, and granites of the Bautista Complex. The geology of the northern slopes of Little Cahuilla Mountain consists of microplutonic gabbro and granodiorite intrusions which host several parallel pegmatite outcrops. These pegmatites follow a strike and dip relative to the host rock, and are most likely genetically related to diorite injections associated with rifting and deformities caused by reduced outer temperatures of the micropluton.To the north is the San Jacinto fault zone, and to the south is the Aqua Caliente fault zone, both of which are active and trend northwest. This faulting has uplifted the area, exposing the rock to surface erosion. The pegmatite veins vary in thickness, sometimes ranging between 1 to 15 feet within the same body. Most veins average more than 500 feet in length and display an average dip of between 20 and 35 degrees to the southwest. All of the gemstones recovered to date have been located within the central portions of quartz-subhedral perthite pegmatites forming distinctly localized areas of enlarged crystal structure with occasional cavities lined with crystals and filled with clay, generally referred to as pocket pegmatite.History. The first recorded gem discovery on the north side of Little Cahuilla Mountain was made in 1953 during construction of a road connecting to Red Mountain. Drilling and rock blasting was necessary to create much of the roadway, and one round of blasting northwest of Little Cahuilla Mountain opened a large pocket of quartz and aquamarine that was eventually called the "Hilton" because of its proportions after excavation. In 1980, Kenneth Gochenour of Tustin, together with his brother Dana, began prospecting for gemstones along the ridges that protrude below the summit of Little Cahuilla Mountain. In 1996, several pockets were discovered by carefully tracing float crystals that had eroded from the 6 to 12 feet thick pegmatite, traceable along the surface for 300 feet, dipping steeply to the southwest. Over 20 pounds of quartz crystals, some with tourmaline attached, and 35 pounds of tourmaline crystals were ultimately produced. Many etched almandine garnets were also recovered.The main point of development at the Sly Rick prospect is upon a prominent rib at approximately 3,600 feet AMSL. The workings have further exposed a complex pegmatite with massive zones of rose quartz, potash feldspar and black tourmaline. The primary gem-bearing pocket zone measures over 20 feet in length, and is characterized by cavities filled with iron-stained kaolin. In January of 1998, excavation using hand tools to expose this zone of mineralization produced crystals of black tourmaline (schorl) up to 30 cm in length; almandine garnet up to 6 cm across; and smoky quartz crystals well over 30 cm in length. Many fine single crystal and matrix associations were recovered, most of which were coated by a thin layer of cookeite. |

Setting. The Columbia Mine is the oldest gem tourmaline mine in California, and is located in the SW¼SW¼ sec. 1, T7S, R3E SBM, 2.9 km (1.8 miles) S of Thomas Mountain (town), on the SE ridge of Thomas Mountain (summit), and 11.8 km (7.3 miles) ENE of Cahuilla (town). The mine workings are situated approximately 200 feet NE of Thomas Mountain Road, near the summit of the divide at an elevation of approximately 5,143 feet AMSL. MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 100 meters.History. James Hamilton[1] is credited with the first recorded discovery of gem tourmaline in California. Hamilton discovered tourmaline on the southeast slope of Thomas Mountain in June of 1872. Some mining was done at this point by Hamilton, and many gem tourmaline crystals were obtained, including a fine specimen acquired by George F. Kunz prior to 1873.In 1893 serious mining efforts were made developing the deposit. In that year, both the California Mine and San Jacinto Mine were opened along the ledges to the southwest and northeast of the Columbia Mine, and some of the finest tourmaline crystals in the world were recovered. It was reported that many "float" crystals of colored tourmaline were found along the surface, with some of the largest crystals measuring up to 9 inches long. More than a bushel of fine gems was recovered that first year, including a beautiful red and green crystal eight inches long that was purchased by Harvard University. Another fine specimen was bought by the American Museum of Natural History in New York.Kunz described the deposit at that time as a pegmatite vein ranging from 40 to 50 feet wide, and trending north to south through the old crystalline rocks which make up the mountain range. The vein was described as in some places consisting of pure feldspar, or feldspar with quartz, and at other points consisting of all mica, or rose quartz and smoky quartz. The tourmalines were described as varying in size from micrograins to crystals 4 inches in diameter, occurring mostly in the feldspar, but also found in other portions of the vein, sometimes in pockets or isolated. The larger crystals were said to generally have a green exterior with red or pink centers (var. watermelon tourmaline). Some of the other crystals recovered were said to contain green, red, pink, black, and intermediate colors (var. polychrome tourmaline), while others were a uniform tint of red (var. rubellite), pink, colorless (var. achroite), or blue (var. indicolite). Kunz described the associated minerals as rose quartz, smoky quartz, asteriated quartz, and fluorite, with some quartz having penetrations of fine hair-like crystals of tourmaline similar to rutile.The Riverside Press (January 12, 1897) reported that the tourmaline mine owned by "Messrs. Jackson and Whiting in the Tahquitz district" were recovering some valuable gems. "Two specimens just taken out measured 1 1/2 by 2 1/2 inches each and are valued at about $400 each, as they are very valuable for ring settings, pins, etc. The color of these stones varies from a dark green to a deep amethyst." The report continues by stating "The largest tourmaline stone ever found in the world was taken out of this mine by Mr. Chilson and placed on exhibition at the World's Fair, where it took the premium. It was afterwards sold to an Englishman for $500."In 1905, Kunz described the Columbia mine as being owned by H. C. Gordon, P. E. Johnson, J. C. Connell, and William Dyche of San Diego. According to Kunz, work had ceased at the mine around 1899, and only the minimal required assessment work had been accomplished over the following five years. Kunz hypothesized that the gem pockets may have been exhausted, as "nothing important" had been found recently. Elaborating on his 1893 description, the deposit was detailed as ledges of pegmatite consisting of a fine granite, with both sides of the pocket material seemingly identical in character, which was said to differ from any other mine yet found in the gem districts of California.In 1959, John Sinkankas reported that any attempts to reopen the mine had enjoyed only limited success. On August 15th, 1982, a new lode mining claim was located by Jim Sherman, named the New Columbia #1. Another lode mining claim was later located by Sherman on January 8th, 1983 - forming a contiguous group of claims, and sequentially named the New Columbia #2. On September 28th, 1993, Sherman transferred his interest in both claims to Matthew C. Taylor of Vista, California. On September 1st, 1997, Taylor, together with J. Blue Sheppard of Pala, and Lee E. Humiston of Seal Beach - located the Belo Horizonte No. 1 and Belo Horizonte No. 2 lode mining claims, adjacent and contiguous with the New Columbia #1 and New Columbia #2 lode mining claims already owned by Taylor.Under Taylor's ownership, several large open cuts and trenches were made to expose the old workings, utilizing heavy equipment including wheeled backhoes and loaders to remove overburden and decomposed rock. Several good sized pockets containing superb gem-quality elbaite crystals have been encountered throughout the excavation process. Some of the larger tourmaline crystals recovered were considered typical of the locality, with specimens of apple green exteriors with deep red centers that rival the finest known examples of such occurrences worldwide. The modern exploration of the site has been systematically documented by Taylor throughout his ongoing geophysical and mineralogical studies of the deposit. According to Taylor, the Columbia pegmatite is atypical of the region due to a nominal amount of mica group minerals present in the elbaite-bearing pocket zone of the dike.Mineralogy/Geology.

The Honeycomb Hill mining district is about 59 mi northwest of Delta in west-central Juab County. The area has no recorded production but has been prospected intermittently since the 1950s for lithophile elements including U, Be, Li, and rare earth elements (REE). The Honeycomb Hills is part of a low range of hills between the southern Deep Creek Range to the west and the Fish Springs Range to the east. The Honeycomb Hills is an isolated series of rhyolite flow domes in the Basin and Range Province. Volcanic-hosted U mineralization was discovered in the Honeycomb Hills by H.P. Bertelsen in 1950, but grades are below typical ore grades (<0.1% U3O8). In 1961, C.R. Sewell discovered Be mineralization in the area while working for The Dow Chemical Company. Dow drilled a series of 15 exploration holes totaling 2930 ft and cut some dozer trenches. Assays reportedly ran from 0.05% to 0.85% Be (McAnulty and Levinson, 1964). Later, Anaconda held a property position in the district from 1977 to 1979 while exploring for uranium. ATW Gold Corp. acquired the Honeycomb Hills as a REE project in 2010. ATW Gold reported surface samples running up to 1000 ppm Be, 1690 ppm Li, 1270 ppm Rb, and 1043 ppm total rare earth oxides, but has dropped their property position. The Honeycomb Hills is the westernmost Miocene to Pliocene (22 to 4 Ma) topaz rhyolite along the greater Deep Creek–Tintic mineral belt. This belt includes the famous Spor Mountain Be-F district 20 mi to the east. The Honeycomb Hills volcanic complex consists of a 40-ft-thick, Pliocene lithic, fluorite-bearing, air-fall (?) tuff, immediately underlain by older volcanic rocks, and overlain by two small coeval topaz rhyolite flow domes that erupted about 4.7 Ma. The rhyolite is gray, vesicular, strongly flow-banded, and contains about 40% phenocrysts of smoky quartz, sanidine, plagioclase, and biotite. Topaz crystals commonly line the vesicles. The rhyolite also contains globular topaz- and fluorite-bearing inclusions (Christiansen and others, 1986). Paleozoic carbonate rocks (Devonian?) lie beneath the rhyolite domes at an estimated depth of about 200 ft (McAnulty and Levinson, 1964). Low-grade Be, Li, Cs, and Rb occurs in an approximately 3-ft-thick zone in the uppermost tuff immediately underlying the capping massive Bell Hill (northwestern) rhyolite dome (McAnulty and Levinson, 1964). Some samples also contain anomalous Mo and Sn (Christiansen and others, 1986). Honeycomb Hills is also anomalous in Lu, Tb, Y, and Yb with a low light REE/heavy REE ratio (i.e., it is relatively enriched in heavy REE). |

A Feldspar-Li pegmatite occurrence/prospect located in the eastern ½ of the SW ¼ sec. 10, T.7N., R.3W.Mineralization is the White Jumbo Li-pegmatite. A poorly-zoned dike that trends N.75º to 85ºE. and probably dips SSE at moderate to steep angles. The dike is 100 fee long and more than 40 feet in outcrop breadth in the vicinity of the prospect openings, but splits into 2 prongs ENE of the stripped area. The North prong tapers out at 50 feet beyond the point of separation but the South prong appears to be more continuous.The country rock is a dark greenish-gray, fine-grained hornblende-biotite schist. A distinct foliation trends N70ºE. and dips 65º NNW.Workings include several shallow cuts and bulldozer scrapings. |

Granite Pegmatite. The Morgan Prospect is located immediately up-slope from the historic Noyes Mountain Quarry and produced excellent parallel growth smoky quartz crystals and some very good purple fluorapatite crystals. This is not the famous Noyes Mountain Quarry (Harvard Quarry), but many collectors do not realize that the two closely spaced occurrences have slightly different names. It was worked in the middle 1990s through about 2005. Many purples fluorapatite specimens, in particular, have been mis-attributed to the more famous nearby occurrence, but there are differences in the crystals and the matrix. |

Granite pegmatite. Western Mount Apatite District. Smith Quarry is a small opening between the nearly overlapping Maine Feldspar Quarry and the Greenlaw Quarry. The locality name, Smith Quarry, has little significance and is only of interest to historians. The Smith "Quarry" is really nothing more than a excavation made by a set of a few dynamite blasts on the southern edge of the Greenlaw Quarry. Oxford Pegmatite Field. |

A group of claims and mine located in the W ½ sec. 16, T.7N., R.3W., NW side of San Domingo Wash.The country rock in this general area is thinly foliated to slabby amphibole schist, quartz-biotite schist, and quartz-biotite-muscovite schist, most of which is medium dark gray in color. These rock types are intimately interlayered, and locally contain lenses of amphibolite and epidosite. Most appear to be of volcanic origin, and several thick, tabular masses of agglomerate and breccia are clearly recognizable. Both foliation and layering strike WNW to West, and dip 45º to 55º North. The general structure is rather uniform, but the rocks are much crumpled and contorted in detail. Here and there the schist is cut by quartz veins and by dikes of fine-grained, very dark gray amphibolite.Near the pegmatite contacts the schist has been impregnated with abundant potash feldspar and flakes of pale green muscovite.The Morning Star pegmatites are irregular, steeply-dipping dikes that are exposed on a prominent ridge. |

Originally, a series of three open pit mines (Big Hill, Middle Hill, Grassy Hill) with underground openings, located at Cornwall, near Lebanon. Started in 1732 and owned by the Cornwall Ore Banks Company (1864) and later, the Bethlehem Steel Company.Lapham (1973, including Plate 22) notes that in the 20th century, 2 major deposits were being worked. the western by the open pit and underground No. 3 mine, and the eastern by the No. 4 mine. Much of the operation came to an abrupt halt in June 1972 when floods from Hurricane Agnes flooded the underground mines. Neither underground operation was reopened.Smith et al. (1988) note that more copper-, cobalt-, and possibly gold-rich ore with substantial by-product iron was actively pursued from the eastern end of the open pit until June 30, 1973. The smaller, footwall ore body beneath the eastern end of the open pit was never mined, but may contain as much as 0.006 ounce/ton Au. The ore bodies consisted of replacement of contact metamorphic skarn by slightly later copper and iron-bearing hydrothermal fluids. The ore-bearing fluids may have been derived in part from the Triassic, York Haven Diabase, which forms the footwall to the larger ore bodies (Rose et al. 1985). Certainly, the diabase served for the heat engine.Smith et al. (1988) report that the total ore production known is 106,000,000 tons of recovered ore with an apparent grade of 0.4 % copper. From 1908 to 1973, the period for which records could be found, 67,000 ounces of gold were recovered and 443,000 ounces silver. Recovered pyrite concentrates contained 1.1 % Co and 0.1 % Ni. This is the type "Cornwall Type" iron ore deposit. |

Located near the center SE¼NE¼ sec. 19, T11S, R2E, SBM, approximately 3 miles northwest of Mesa Grande, on the west slope of Gem Hill. Ownership was undetermined in 1957.The deposit is a pegmatite dike which strikes northwest and dips gently southwest, which ranges in thickness from 2 to 5 feet. Gem minerals were mined from pockets in pods of quartz euhedral perthite pegmatite exposed as discontinuous core segments. Pockets exposed around 1957 were 2 inches or less in maximum dimension and lined with small crystals of quartz, muscovite, albite, and colorless to pale pink beryl. Coarse cleavelandite and 'Lepidolite' were present in the dump.The deposit was discovered in 1907 by Juan Mario Cota, who developed the mine between 1907 and 1910. These workings were reported to have produced garnet, beryl and tourmaline of several shades including amber and wine color. Total output of gem minerals may have been as much as 500 pounds. These workings which were largely overgrown by 1957, consisted of a cut approximately 50 feet long, 10 to 25 feet wide, and 5 to 12 feet deep. |

The mine on this mountain had been a source of feldspar for decades in the early 20th century, however, only once, in the 1920s, have colored tourmaline been detected. One miner, suspected, and discovered, the true potential of the mountain. After years of searching, the sought after treasure began to appear. The geographic district is called a pegmatite, a large intrusion of molten magma into 350 million year old Devonian rocks. |

Granite pegmatite in the Oxford pegmatite field. Mount Mica is the second oldest elbaite occurrence in North America, after Clarkes Ledge Quarry, Chesterfield, Massachusetts (King, 2010; King and Teixeira, 2010). Mount Mica was found in October 1821 by two professional men. one a doctor of medicine, Ezekiel Holmes, and one a lawyer, Elijah Hamlin. The day following the discovery was marked by a surprise early snowfall preventing further exploration until Hamlin's younger brothers drilled and blasted the ledge in the summer of 1822.(Although there are numerous reports which cite Augustus Hamlin's histories of the locality claiming an 1820 discovery, the date is incorrect for many reasons and the actual snowfall date is now known (Sturtevant, 1948; Perham, 1987, King, 2000, 2001, 2006a,b, 2012). Analysis of snowfall records made by Parker Cleveland as well as a search of Oxford County town histories corroborate Sturtevant (1948) and Perham (1987) and point to October 18, 1821, as the day of the discovery of Mount Mica and the famous snowstorm covering Mount Mica until the spring (King, 2012). Mount Mica is an LCT-class granite pegmatite. |

A pegmatite quarry operated on the so-called "Eastern Dike" of the White Rock District. It was operated by the Consolidated Feldspar Company from before 1910 to at least 1927, but was inactive during the early 1940s. Quarrying was resumed in 1959 and greatly expanded along the Eastern Dike by The Feldspar Corporation and continued until the 1970s. At this point the main quarry was filled in and now is covered by the Kleen Energy power plant, but a small satellite quarry to the immediate south and exhibiting similar mineralogy was not filled, though it is enclosed within the power plant property an no longer accessible. |

Closed location. Granite Pegmatite. Oxford pegmatite field. Hosted by the Patch Mountain member (a calc-silicate) of the Sangerville Formation. The contact contains diopside, calcite, minor grossular and perhaps vesuvianite.The larger upper quarry is probably the original opening, active in the early 1860s and early 1890s, possibly also in the 1930s. The lower prospect may have been opened in the mid-1950s and many fluorapatite specimens were produced in the 1980s. |

Plumbago Mt. - Oxford pegmatite field. There is an East Pegmatite and a West Pegmatite, with most of the exposure in the West Pegmatite. Spodumene crystals to 2.5 meters constituted one third of one of the pegmatite zones. Spodumene Brook is a usually dry tributary of Howe Brook and is located roughly west by northwest of the Rose Quartz Crystal Locality/Prospect and below the ridge of Plumbago Mountain.) Land currently owned by Plumbago Timber and Quarries LLC which permitted use of new mineral discovery information to appear on mindat. |

A REE-V-Fe-Mn-F-Nb-Ti-P-Ba-Pt-Cu-Mica-Th occurrence located in secs. 11 & 12, T46N, R2W, NMM, on patented (private) land, on located claim(s) and on private lease. Discovered in 1885. Operated by Du Pont (1957-1958). Owned by Reunion Energy Co. (100%), Houston, Texas (1994). Owned by Teck Resources (1990-2010).Mineralization is a massive carbonatite stock (Mineral occurrence model information. Model code 24; USGS model code. 10; deposit model name. carbonatite), that forms the core of the Iron Hill carbonatite complex. The ore body is funnel-shaped, pear-shaped in plan view. The ore is disseminated in the pipe. It is 200 meters thick, 460 meters wide, 900 meters long, with a depth-to-top of 0 meters, and covering an area of 1,300 HA. It is irregular in form. The primary mode of origin was magmatic differentiation. Primary ore control was igneous activity and the secondary control was lithology. There is no wallrock alteration. It is hosted in nepheline syenite, pyroxenite and carbonatite intrusive. There is one main ore body located on and around Iron Hill. Three smaller ore bodies occur around the main ore body. The carbonatite stock is enriched in rare earth elements, niobium, and thorium; the adjacent pyroxenite unit is enriched in these elements also and in substantial amounts of titanium. The Th is in veins in the country rock. Biotite-bearing zones in the pyroxenite contain 0.2% Cu. Carbonate rocks are rich in Sr (to 2%). Pods of apatite follow flow bands in the carbonatite. Associated rocks include granite. Local rocks include intrusives.The Iron Hill carbonatite complex is exposed for 31 km2 (12 square miles) near the small town of Powderhorn, about 35 km (22 miles) south-southwest of Gunnison, Colorado. The intrusion is alkaline with a prominent carbonatite stock at its core. This intrusive complex is noteworthy because of its classic geology and its mineral resource potential. This intrusive complex was described by Olson and Hedlund as “the best example of the carbonatite-alkalic rock association in the United States and is one of the outstanding occurrences in the world, comparable to many of the classic areas in Africa and other continents.” The primary rock types of the complex are, from oldest to youngest, pyroxenite, uncompahgrite, ijolite, nepheline syenite, and carbonatite (Olson (1974); Olson and Hedlund, 1981; Armbrustmacher, 1983). Substantial titanium concentrations have been measured in the pyroxenite unit, which is thought to host the largest titanium (Ti) resource in the United States (Thompson, 1987; Shaver and Lunceford, 1998; Van Gosen and Lowers, 2007). The carbonatite stock is enriched in rare earth elements (REE), niobium (Nb), and thorium (Th); the pyroxenite unit is also enriched in these elements plus vanadium (V). Thus, it may be economic to extract several resources from this complex with a well-coordinated mine and mill plan. Thus far, none of these resources has been developed at Iron Hill.A dolomitic carbonatite stock was the last major igneous phase of the Iron Hill intrusive complex. The stock forms Iron Hill and the ridge to its northwest, and it is exposed throughout an area of about 3.7 km (2.3 miles) long by 1.9–0.8 km (1.2–0.5 mile) wide, making it the largest exposed carbonatite mass in the United States. Staatz and others (1979) estimated that the carbonatite stock of Iron Hill contains 655.6 million metric tons (722.7 million tons) of carbonatite. On the basis of the averaged analytical results of 28 samples of the carbonatite stock—0.4 percent for total rare earth oxides and 0.004 percent ThO2—Staatz and others (1979) calculated potential reserves within the stock of 2.6 million metric tons (2.865 million tons) of rare earth elements oxides and 28,190 metric tons (31,080 tons) of ThO2. Recent sampling of the Iron Hill carbonatite stock by Van Gosen (2008) found median values (from 13 samples) of 0.19 percent total rare earth oxides (table 17) and 0.0035 percent ThO2; this result represents estimated resources within the stock of about 1.22 million metric tons (1.34 million tons) of rare earth element oxides and about 23,000 metric tons (25,300 tons) of ThO2.Geological structures include concentric structures (Concentric Structures formed by arcuate shapes of different rock types, cone sheets of carbonatite; radial carbonate dikes; and later faults and dikes)Workings include unspecified underground openings.Reserves/resources.

The Spor Mountain mining district is 43 mi northwest of Delta in Juab County. The district is the world’s premier beryllium (Be) producer and the seventh largest district in Utah as valued by total metal production value. The district is also Utah’s largest fluorite producer and has produced a minor amount of U. The district’s total Be production is estimated at over 3 million tons of ore averaging over 0.2% Be, derived from seven small open pits since production began in 1969. Total district metal production at modern metal prices is estimated at $2.8 billion. The Roadside Be open pit mine is probably the most productive mine in the district. The Spor Mountain Be operation is still in production. The district is part of the Deep Creek–Tintic mineral belt in the eastern Basin and Range Province. Spor Mountain proper consists of a southwest-tilted block of Ordovician to Devonian carbonate rocks and some interbedded shale and orthoquartzite on the northwest flank of the late Eocene Thomas caldera. These sedimentary strata are unconformably overlain by Eocene to Miocene volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks. All of the Be deposits in the district are associated with the 21 Ma, high-silica, topaz rhyolites of the Spor Mountain Formation. The Spor Mountain Formation is in turn overlain by the post-mineral, 6 Ma Topaz Mountain Rhyolite (Lindsey, 2001). The Be deposits are mostly west of Spor Mountain itself and are typically associated with northeast-trending, down-to-the- southeast normal faults/feeders creating half grabens. Beryllium mineralization occurs as epithermal, stratiform, disseminated replacement deposits in a porous volcanic tuff at the base of the half graben. The bertrandite mineralization primarily replaces carbonate clasts in the basal tuff. Beryllium mineralization is associated with Mn and is enriched in other lithophile elements such as F, U, Li, and the rare earth elements (REE) Ce, Dy, Er, Gd, Ho, Nd, Sm, Y, and Yb. The fluorite production in the district comes from a series of small pipes and veins exposed in the Paleozoic carbonate rocks on Spor Mountain proper. The fluorite pipes are generally small-diameter (<50 m) breccia pipes related to faults and small rhyolitic intrusive bodies. On average, the pipes plunge about 70° E, probably in part due to about 20° of westward, post-mineral rotation. The pipes are generally carrot- shaped and narrow at depth. The breccia clasts are primarily carbonate, which have largely been replaced by fluorite (Lindsey, 1982). The Be deposits and fluorite pipes are believed to result from ascending hydrothermal fluids derived from a granitic pluton at depth. Lindsey (1982) postulated a hypothetical rhyolite pluton near Eagle Rock Ridge may be the source of the Be, F, and U mineralization at Spor Mountain. |

GPS coordinates are currently provisionally set to the village of the same name.A tourmaline-bearing (elbaite-subtype) granitic pegmatite near a village of the same name, close to An Phu, located in the Yen Bai province of northern Vietnam.Tourmaline specimens from this mine recovered in 2004-2006 are reported to be elbaite (Huong et al., 2012). Liddicoatite (sensu lato) and rossmanite are also reported. Ruby and spinel specimens are not from Minh Tien, but from marbles at the nearby village of An Phu. |

A commercial source of yellow gem tourmaline in pegmatites around Canary, 32 km west-southwest of Lundazi. The deposits are mined since 1983 and consist of both pegmatite and eluvial and alluvial deposits.The tourmalines display colours ranging from yellow-green to yellow, orange and brown, but much of the orange to brown material is heated to attain a golden or canary yellow colour. They are elbaite and fluor-elbaite in composition, but contain significant amounts of Mn2+. |

The Deep Purple Pegmatite got its name from the abundantly occurring deeply purple coloured 'Lepidolite'. The claims were pegged in the late 1950s and worked for spodumene only for a very short period of time as the tonnages were far too low to be of economic interest.The north-south trending, subvertical pegmatite was worked to depths of less than 2 m over a strike length of 12 m and a maximum width of 1.50 m. The host rock is a porphyric metagranite. The pegmatite appears to be isolated but it is most likely genetically related to the far bigger Zulu LCT pegmatite which is situated some 8 km to the NW. |

Hurlbut (1957) says of the locality, "scattered pegmatites extending over a distance of two and one-half miles in a north-south direction....Development to date has shown this pegmatite to contain one of the world's great concentrations of lithium. Spodumene and amblygonite are both present but the chief lithium minerals are petalite and 'Lepidolite', which are found in hundreds of thousands of tons. The southern half of this body is mined by Bikita Minerals, Ltd., with 'Lepidolite' the principal ore mineral. In the northern half George H. Nolan, Ltd., is mining mainly petalite."The coordinates entered for this locality are based on this description and applied to the northern developed region, with the understanding that there remains some uncertainty. |

Pegmatites."Beryl has been found on Ruia Falls Estate, 32 miles north of Bindura in a narrow schist belt following the east bank of the Ruya river. It occurs in pegmatites holding spodumene and some 'Lepidolite', but the quantity of beryl is negligible. [Other reported occurrences in the district are on the Grand Duke claims near Odzi, 15 miles south of Chibi, and at the Chakari claims, 15 miles northeast of the Bikita tin field.]" (Mineral Trade Notes, 1953, page 5-6)"On Ruia Falls Estate, formerly Clutton and Bruton farms, about 32 miles north by west of Bindura township, greisenized pegmatites cut paragneisses of the Ruya Series (S.R.G.S. Bull. 10). These have been opened up to some extent in a search for beryl, but the lithium minerals, 'Lepidolite' and spodumene, were found to be more abundant than beryl. The spodumene here crops out in large rounded masses and boulders and shows spheroidal weathering in the trenches. Although the available tonnage probably is moderate, it is as usual intermixed with quartz in about equal proportions, so that it is of little value at present. The quantity of 'Lepidolite', too, is very small. ['Lepidolite' also occurs in the vicinity of Shamva -- on the Tafuna hill, and near Bindura -- but here again in very small quantity. Isolated occurrences are reported elsewhere in the Colony, such as in the north Inyanga District and a locality 6 miles north of Gadzoma in the Hartley District.]" (Mineral Trade Notes, 1953, page 49). |

A major Li pegmatite which was first pegged in 1955. Minor petalite production was reported for 1961 and 1962. The pegmatite bodies intruded along serpentine and sedimentary rocks over a strike length of several kilometers. The width varies between 10 and 25 meters. The bigger pegmatites the north of the Machakwe River are rich in spodumene and 'Lepidolite', the smaller pegmatites south of the river are rich in petalite. The pegmatite bodies strike N20° and dip with 70° to 90° to the west. Parts of the pegmatite are quite rich in tantalite-(Mn). The economic potential for lithium, tantalum, and others is currently (2014) being evaluated. |
